Hi guys
So I have a Husqvarna 266se that was having some issues. It would start and idle fine but once you put it in the wood it would bog down but pull it out and rev her up and she'd be good to go again until it got a load on the engine. So I bought a new carb kit fuel line and fuel filter put it all back together and now it'll start and die after about 2 seconds I can't even get it to run longer than that I've taken the carb apart 1/2 dozen times and retraced my steps but I'm stumped on this one (no pun intended!)
Any thoughts..?

Ok, make sure you didn't put the carb gasket on upside down, blocking the impulse hole. Done THAT before! Metering gasket, diaphram in correct order? Probably not but worth checking. It was dying before under load before=lean condition. Not enough fuel to engine. Have you adjusted the carb? If not, then I suspect a air leak.
