I have a 026 a stihl chainsaw was cutting today and was running fine and then when i went to full throttle it sputters let off and it idles fine
Anyone have any suggestions of what is wrong
Gotta start with the basics. When was the last time the carb was cleaned, fuel filter last changed ? Etc. doesn’t take much to jam the tiny orfices up in the carb.
