Carb settings for a Husky 142e

[Sean McGillicuddy]

I'm having trouble with getting my 142E Husky started.
What should I set the T @ to get it started?
Will 2 turns work or 1 1/2 turns?
Thanks
I did look up how to make the tool to tune the carb.:

Fixed my problem.. Nothing a good carb cleaning couldn't fix!

T = Idle. If trouble starting, turn it all the way in - throttle rod plate is above the taper. CW rotation.
H-L screws - 1-2 turns out (CCW) from LIGHTLY seated.
The electrical connector tool may work but I see it starting to slip soon. I'd get a real splined tool. Or dremel slots in the H-L heads and use a little screwdriver. The slots give visual feedback that you actually turned screws.
