A few months ago I bought a used Husky 372xp. It starts fine and runs good. But when cutting it sounds like it has a miss or something. I don't really know how to explain it it just sounds wierd. Does anybody know what this might could be.
 
372

saw could be adjusted to lean and tour hearing the electronic rev limiter
 
I had a Dolmar 133 that did that a couple of years ago, and after a lot of checking, I found it was jumping fire from the plug wire to the case of the saw. A new plug wire cured the miss.
 
I don't know, what is 4-stroking and what does it mean?

4 stroking means that it almost sounds like a 4 stroke when held wide open with no load. Basically the carb is governing engine speed by being too rich to go any faster. At least that's how I understand it.
