So rebuilt carb and replaced intake boot and impulse line on my old 034 today. When I was reassembling the carb, I was surprised to see the H and L needles had the same threads and looked the same. All the other carbs I've messed with they were different sizes. Are they really the same or is their a difference?
Also saw it still stalling when turned on its side even after leaning it out quite a bit at idle. Thinking I might have a bad crank seal. I would like to get this old girl back running perfect as this is the bow saw I used when I was 12 and it has been used off and on ever since then.
Any ideas? Crank seals likely to go bad on 35 year old saw ?
And I really should've looked at the H and L screws when I took them out, but other carbs I've worked on even had different thread sizes and the H screw had a different taper on the end.
