The "L" mixture needle should be used to make the engine run correctly at the lowest speeds.

The big idle speed screw should then be used to control the idle speed.  The correct idle speed is just slower than where the chain begins to spin.

I have a Poulan 3500 that is a lot like your 3450 (the same age) and I had to replace the carburetor diaphragms three years ago. I've had to replace the fuel filter in the tank three times over the years.
We should share what we know... someone may learn...
That knowledge can live after us... and that "Pays It Forward".
