Go to: http://www.drystacked com for a 12 page article on Walbro carburetor theory and troubleshooting. Check particularly, the position of the gasket in the lower chamber. Check the spark plug for blue, snappy spark when the engine is hot. If ok, place a small amount of fuel mix in the cylinder and try for start. If it pops several times, look to the fuel system. Check the fuel filter, air filter, and muffler for plugging. Does the primer bulb fill with fuel after several pumps? Check the fuel lines for decay or other damage. When the engine is hot, try not using the choke, but set the fast idle. Hope some of this helps!

If the jet screws have slot heads, set 'L' CCW about 1/2 turn more or less. If proper, the engine should idle fairly well, yet allow the engine to 'follow the throttle'. If the jet screws have 'D' heads, you will need to either make a 'D' head screwdriver, or take the saw to a service dealer for adjustment. If the chain is trying to turn after the above adjustment, set the idle speed screw CCW until the chain stops trying to turn. Hope this helps!
