    Good question ,probabley not though .From what I gather they were intended to allow the engines to run at a lesser power level if the filter starts to clog ,else the things would run a tad rich otherwise . Most likely an EPA mandated item concerning emissions I would assume . This I find...

    If you remove that little rubber nipple that goes from the air box to the carb atmospheric vent it un intelegises the "smart " carb .At that point it works just like any other .Plug the hole in the air box if you do that though . I doubt that's the problem though .

    Aha Ha .I did repair Mrs Smiths' printer and kept my cool . Another mile stone .:) Now since a grumpy old dog like me can learn a new trick maybe some of you younger more patient types can get with the carb thing, maybe not .;)

    Well yes I can relate but again it boils down to your tolerance level .Fact is at the moment Mrs Smiths' printer isn't working properly . I'm sure 90 percent of the posters on this forum could figure that frustrating contraption out in about 5 minutes flat .That would be about 3 minutes over my...

    Another thing though .That little saw uses that "intellacarb " gizmo .The atmospheric vent for the metering diaphragm vents into the air filter .If the filter becomes plugged the saw doesn't reach full power because the deflection of the diaphragm is limited .Therefore if that vent or the filter...

    Well yes on a regular tank vent ,old style .However on the 200T and most more modern Stihls they use that breather thing that vents into the filter chamber I suppose in order they don't plug with chips and stuff . I think that's a great idea that Stihl came up with . The old vents could get...

    Say what,tank vent missing and you blocked it off with a screw .No wonder it doesn't run worth a hoot . Are you sure it's the tank vent .That saw uses a little breather type thing that sits in the air box compartment .It's out of the way .How in the world could it get torn off ?

    I couldn't find the pictures I was looking for but this shows the two designs of the fuel chamber I mentioned .If you get the idea of using sealant as I did be very carefull when applying it as to not block off one of the orfices .Use a Q-tip or something very gently .Let it dry over night...

    I can't find that thread but it might be on another forum . At any rate there's the possiblity that the welch plug in the fuel chamber of the carb might be leaking a tad bit which will cause a slightly lean running condition after the saw warms up . There's two basic styles of that Zama carb...

    It isn't that big of a deal to pull the limiters off unless they've changed the design .At any rate you most likely could have one of two problems .Either the high speed is just set too lean or you have the same problem with the Zama carb most of us have already experianced . I'll find the link...
