One of my 346xp's has started to behave strange recently - it needs 20 or
so pulls to start - it just ignites and then dies - until 20 or so pulls, that is -
and when it finally starts and gets worm it has a way too high idle rev so
that the chain never stops - albeit it is quite firmly tensioned ... unless chain
break is employed ... not ideal obviously ... . It sounds like it is getting
a bit too much air I guess ... .
I have cleaned the air filter giving no improvement .. . (Predictably if it gets
too much air ... .)
I haven't tried to readjust the carburator as I think the mentioned behavi-
our is too much "off topic" to be just a carb adjustement issue ... .
Thankful for advice ... .
Edit: L-screw is on max by the way ... .
