Husky 2101 idle adjustment help

[MachineHead]

Hi all, great site,
I occationally use a 2101 at work, I cant get the saw to idle without spinning the chain, if I adjust it down at all it dies, I also played with the L screw mix a little but didnt seem to help it idle slower without dieing. I just got a digital Tach so I havent been able to get an exact idle RPM but it doesnt sound as if it is idleing real fast, just cant get the chain to stop spinning, any suggestions appreciated, thanks in advance, Tom.

Looks like your clutch spring is stretched or the sprocket bearing needs grease or is done.

OK thanks, I'll check that too. That sounds about right since the idle seems low enough. Tom
