My MS461 would not idle. (conked off after idling a few seconds)
I played around with the screws myself... got nowhere... and took it to the dealer.
I asked them to get all screws adjusted properly.
and specifically
*** Make sure it idles properly
*** Make sure the chain doesn't turn while idling.
Got a call today and they said it was ready (they had replaced the carburetor)
... BUT... they said ...
The chain turns a few links every 15 seconds or so.
They said that is the best they could get it.
2 questions please:
1) is this "normal" operation for a Stihl dealer? (i.e. "this is the best we can get it")
2) my owners manual says the carburetor is warrantied for 2 years.. they said it is not.
Any help/comments appreciated!
