I bought a used Husqvarna 455 Rancher X-torq. Attaching pic of serial number if that helps.
Anyone with this saw willing to share a starting point for carb turning? How many turns out are your H, L, T screws?
The previous owner had obviously messed with the carb settings. Also removed the limiters. The saw wouldn't run.
I set all three screws to a "default" (H,L,T) of 1 1/2 turns out. The "T" screw was unscrewed a LOT! Like 6 turns. The saw starts now but I can't get it dialed.
I am going to rebuild carb, replace gas lines, check for cracks in manifold... A sanity check of what someone else's settings are would be nice.
Thanks! New to the site but love it. I have been tinkering with small engines for a long time. I have learned a lot here.
