Hi
I just installed a bigger kit plus a HD air filter on my Makita DCS7901. Two piston rings broke, but the third seem to work (I found out , the hard way. that these rings have a top and bottom side!).
I use ASPEN 2-stroke and add some extra oil (1:25) for the first 2-3 tanks. A Dolmar dealer I visited claims these saws should run 1:40; is that true?
My service point in my town advised me to remove the limiter caps on the carb. I openend both the L and the H with 1 turn.
When I started the machine, the rpm in idle seems to me too high. Is it save to adjust the L? No risk making it too lean?
Does the screw above the L/H also play a role?
