Hello all.
I'm having trouble getting my Husky 142E chainsaw to run ..
I have just replaced the fuel line and filter and I can't understand which screw to turn to get this going a little better.
Right know it starts when I hold the throttle..as soon as I let it go it dies..
It originally would bog or act like it wasn't getting gas .. so I replaced the fuel filter that was no longer attached to the fuel line.
Help would greatly be apricated..

Find the low and high ports labeled L/H. Close them all the way clockwise and go back counterclockwise 1 1/2 turns. If it fire up then adjust the low side till you get good throttle response and it run smoothly on idle. You also can adjust the T port to the point that the chain is not turning. Start doing that and let's see what happens.
