Carburetor settings for basic "Running In"  states 1 1/4 turns on both the High and Low.    Is this from the screwed in or tightened position?

Yes, and you have to remove the limiters or stops to achieve this.

I just cut the tabs off the limiters.

Ok, and the limiters or stops are the plastic cap that are on the screws, right?

These plastic caps have ears on them that keep you from turning the needles around and around. With the stops you get about 2/3 of a turn is all.

If you just cut the ears off a little screw driver fits in the slots nicely without slipping out.

If you take the whole cap off and the chainsaw is running, it is almost impossible to keep a screw driver in the slot.

the ears must have been already cut off, cause I can screw them in all the way.
I want to sincerely thank you for all of your help and insight.

On a side note my father has an 0lder  Husky 44, and I'm looking for a service manual like the one you sent me for the 372, do you know where I could get one?    Thanks again  Respectfully Jason,   (In Oregon)

Husqvarna 44

Service manuals are not available for all models. Once you seen a few of them, they are a lot alike

Getting close I hope to starting up the 372!  On the diagram, it seems to show the exhaust port then the heat shield, gasket and lastly the muffler for reassembly , sound right?

Start up today, went ok,  ie.... it started,  ran for a minute, then let it cool.    I have the carb set at the "Run In" settings, but the idle is to high.  I have the throttle backed off all the way and it seems like its running at 1/3 throttle or so.   Sounds good but won't idle down.  Thoughts
