[QUOTE="maowwg, post: 7932455, member: 175366"] If that’s a model where the throttle cable mounts to plastic attachment points on the back of the air filter housing, I would start by pulling the air filter housing off and making sure the cable sleeve is seated properly. Also make sure it’s not pinching or bending any corners too tightly. That’s the easy fix. If it is changing speed based on orientation of the saw without changing throttle pressure it may be a carb tuning issue (rich low end vs throttle too light). Another easy fix. If it’s an air leak start with the plate on which the carb mounts Or the rubber tube for the second butterfly if it’s a strato saw. [/QUOTE]
