Well, you guys were spot on, as usual.  I installed the carb kit, and the saw was easy to keep running.

Now the question is tuning. Is it me, or is it much more difficult to tune the strato saws?  This is my first shot at tuning one.  My 357 was very simple. 

I started out with the specs i found on Bills Saw Shop page, which states 2.5 turns out for the H, and 1.5 for the L.  I tuned the low side, which was fairly simple, i think.  The high side wasnt as simple as my 357.  At 2.5 turns out, it seemed to rev to around 13,000.  I couldn't hear the 4 stroking, so i turned the screw out 1/2 turn.  It went down to 12,500, but i still couldn't hear it distinctly.  Turning the screw out beyond that didn't seem to have much affect.

I have heard that these are easier to tune in the wood.  Any advice?

Thanks!
