So.... Should I tune my saws to have a bog in them, because that's how they are designed to run?Then he told my that it might be designed to run that way.....
Excellent, that is what I will ask the stihl rep and tech LOLSo.... Should I tune my saws to have a bog in them, because that's how they are designed to run?
****, I've been adjusting my carbs wrong all this time.
It is a carb with the ability to adjust the mixture under some limited circumstances. Primarily this is limited by the lack of much of any sensors other than rpm, so they periodically lean out the mixture slightly and watch what happens to the rpm. It's pretty much how we would set the mixture.
This scheme can't operate under conditions where the rpm is changing for other reasons, and so much of the time it is just an old fashioned carb running without feedback control. When you let off the throttle it's running open loop without feedback control - if it won't drop rpm that says it is lean under that condition. Under load the system fixed up the mixture as it was designed to, but open loop it reverts to lean. When you open the throttle again is is also not in feedback control and it's lean again and bogs. The question is why is it lean when not under feedback control?
Has anyone noticed that the 661 carbs have a idle throttle plate adjustment??. I wonder if the throttle flap position has anything to do with the problem?
is the 461 bogless??? If so I might just have to bite the bullet and trade the 661 in on one
