Stihl 029 carburator question

[pianokzzz]

I hope someone can help me out here...I recently bought a used 029 with a bad carb...I purchased a new carb, installed it, made no adjustments, and usually it will crank right up....but at times, it will not start from apparent flooding right off the bat, even though it's choked. How can I insure the carb is set correctly? There appear to be 3 adjustment screws...2 (H & L) adjustments on top and 1 (L) adjustment screw just below those..From reading the manual off the Stihl website, it only mentions the 2 H L screws and the diagram does not even show a L screw below these other 2....any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Frustrated in TN,

Can't help... don't know enough about the 029, but if you post this in the chainsaw section, you will get some.

Do a search for "carburetor adjustment" or similar down in the Chainsaw forum. There's a bunch of info down there, you just have to dig a little.
