I think I have an air leak on the carb. I sprayed carb cleaner on the throttle shaft and it stalls the saw at idle. Can someone find the link to that thread? Thanks. (I tried search.)

I recall someone saying, Cuttinscott I think, that sometimes the carb itself has been known to get loose on the mount. Try tightening it down and see what happens...

+1 what Tom said and also I read something about a refit metal collar too.

That's exactly what my saw is doing.....sucking carb cleaner in the throttle shaft! I brought it in under warranty to my dealer today. Thanks guys.
