Is this what some consider the auto decompression valve on my 357?
I know I've seen people say to replace it and I want to make sure I'm on the same page.
I stopped into a Husky and Stihl shop and the guy told me it wasn't, he said it was an EPA saw and it was ment to pull unburnt gas and oil back into the cylinder to be burned. I'm not sure he was correct.
If the decomp is not working correctly would it cause the saw to idle fine but as soon as u try to throttle it bog down? It does that occasionally and it's very annoying!! Sometimes it runs perfectly and sometimes it bogs down and I have to feather the throttle to keep it from dying.
Please hit me with some knowledge as I don't want to mess up my saw.
If u need more info just say so.
Thanks Woody
