Hello,
I am having a problem with my MS200T.
Problem: When I start the saw, the only way I can keep it running is by keeping it at full throttle. When it is at full throttle it pulses (the tip of the bar jumps up when I hold it level).
Also if I attempt to put it into a cut the chain slows way down and it will not cut much.
When it runs full throttle it sounds like it is under a load, sometimes the chain even stops spinning.
Sometimes when I start the saw I can hear it for just a second sound normal then it falls back down into a deeper sound and pulsates again.
What I have done:
Checked the fuel filter in the tank, fuel line, I removed the carb and removed the bottom (with single screw) and cleaned the filter with carb cleaner.
I removed the muffler cleaned the spark arrest. I ran the saw without the spark arrest, black junk in the muffler spat out of the muffler, at that point i opened the muffler and let it soak in fuel and used a wire brush to clean it.
Any ideas would be awesome, gotta get back to work.
