Make sure your saw is about half full of fuel. It makes a difference on the adjustment. Start your saw and let it warm up to operating temperature. Then turn the saw off for a minute. So you can do the initial adjustments,

first using either a small screwdriver or hex screwdriver ...depends on what the 039 has.

Turn both the Low speed (L) and High speed (H) clockwise until they stop. The turn them both one full turn counterclockwise.

Then with the screwdriver turn the H screw slowly clockwise. You will notice it will start to run faster as you turn it. Adjust the screw until the saw is running smooth and fast until it starts to 'flutter" . Then turn it slightly back . This will get the proper RPM.
If it is running too fast,or too slow, turn the Idle Adjustment screw (IA)( it is an i not an L) counterclockwise to lower the idle or clockwise to higher the idle.

Put the brake on and let it idle. Then turn the saw different times to each side and up and down. If it turns off or sputters, turn the L screw slowly back a little to adjust it and that should give you the proper adjustment. Now , if there is nothing else wrong (like a vacum leak) your saw should run fine.
If you absolutely can't adjust it. Something else is wrong it is sucking air through somewhere. Take it to the shop. or if you can, DIY, then by all means do it.

Carb ajustment

Only Info I see is "Homelite Chain Saws" - not much to go on.
Most saws have two carb adjustment screws, Hi, and Lo.
Assuming the saw will start and run enough to warm up, then
adjust the Lo screw in, clockwise, until the motor starts to slow down,
turn only about 1/8 turn at a time. From the point where it starts to slow down, turn it out about 1/4 turn. This should give you a decent idle. Now pull the throttle, and see what happens.
A - Saw runs up to speed, but dies off, or starts to slow on it's own.
turn Hi idle screw out about 1/4 turn.
B - Saw speeds up, but runs sluggish, fat - not real hi end.
Turn Hi screw IN, about 1/8 or so, and try again, or adjust
while running at full throttle. (best way)
IF it won't run well, try turning both screws all the way in to seat them, then come back out about 1-1/2 to 2 turns. this should get you in the ballpark to set things up as above.

Once the saw is running well, adjust the idle screw to a smooth idle but slow enough that the chain stops moving.

Stay safe

My eager ****** chain saw will not stay running ?

The 3 adjustment screws are Idle, high and low.
First figure out which screws are which adjustment. Tighten the screws then turn them 1 full turn.
Then start the saw and get it warmed up. Work on the high adjustment. This does take a little while. after you get the saw running at high speed work on the low speed.
