OK I got one for you husky jred heads. I have a 372 and a 2171 that are exhibiting the same symptoms. Both act like they have an electrical short after warming up at high rpms they kind of oscillate. Wont rev all the way out. Is this a common problem? I have changed kill switch checked all wires for shorts. Check and cleaned carbs can't find anything obvious....stumped at this point.

Check the gap of the coil to flywheel?

Sold the 024 so now rearrange the lineup for Saturday.

Got the Remy SL-55 running so he will go. Yikes he is loud! Threshold of pain loud.
That reminds me. Carl, I'm gonna bring you a certain Remy Deere to diagnose... I'd love to be able to use it once in a while, but can't in it's current condition.

I got a 020AV top handle and a Homelite Auto 150 from a guy. I don't know much about Homelites. Is there anything special about this Homelite model?

I've got one and like it a lot. Runs good and cuts great, but mostly relegated to the shelf now that I've got newer, better saws. When I got started cutting charity wood it was the homie 150 and a 10-10 that were my go to saws. I've come a ways since then.

346, 350-390 coild all work. 394/5, and 3120 are different.
Great to hear, I have several that I can choose from then. I'm pretty sure I have a couple of those. Hmm 346, 350x3, 2150, 357, that I can think of right off the top of my head. I have interchanged several of the Stihls before just wasn't sure exactly which ones I could swap on the husks. I will have to try one tomorrow and see if there is any difference.
