Husky 555,562 Carb Problems, Which One?

[Jed1124]

A friend of mine had a 555 with the El 44 carb. His saw has run perfect since day one. Between the El 44, 46 and 48, which carb had been known to have the most problems with the bog and other issues? Thanks

the el46 has had the biggest problems

Thanks Terry. Have you seen the 44 and 48 with problems too? Also, I am curios as has anyone actually diagnosed the specific defect in the the carbs that are bad? Is it a mechanical issue or something with the autotune?
