My poulan wild thing 2375 bogs out when i try to throttle it. What are the carb settings (the high and low jets) ( idle screw) so when i throttle it it wont bog out. i will turn the jets all the way in and take the idle screw out so if you could give me the adjustments based on that, that would be appreciated. HELP!
Ok good place to start is close both hi low screws the open as follows low 1 an 1/4 turn hi 1 an 1/2 turn start saw when you pull throttle it should rev quickly with no hesitation if not gradually adjust in until this is achieved then hold wide open saw should run with slight gurgle at top end NOT scream out of control to much blubber and no power to much scream no power and catastrophic engine failure is a real possiblity
Make sure that the air cleaner and muffler are not plugged. Check the carburetor screws and nuts for tightness. After turning both needles CW to stops (lightly), back them out CCW 1-1/2 turns each. Start the engine and allow to warm up. Open the throttle and adjust the H needle CW somewhat until the engine speeds up, but is 4-stroking. Correct adjustment is when the engine 4-strokes, but immediately 2-strokes when cutting. Release the throttle and adjust L CW till the engine runs fairly smoothly, but allows the engine to 'follow the throttle'. Set the idle speed screw so that the chain doesn't turn, but the engine keeps running. Hope this helps!
