Chainsaw Repair

I put a new Meteor P&C on an 036 pro and I’m trying to tune the carb, the problem is, I can turn the H screw all the way to the left (it has limiters on the H & L) and the saw doesn’t  want to 4 stroke.
1) I tried another carb (same as the one that’s on it)
2) I pressure & vacuum tested, No Leaks
3) The saw starts and idles perfect
The only thing I haven’t done yet is hook the tach up to it, It just doesn’t seem to make a difference when I turn the H screw, it seems to run the same with the screw turned all the way to the right as it does with it turned all the way to the left. Is there a way to remove the limiter caps? I made a couple cuts with it turned all the way out and it has all kind of power, but I was afraid to take it to wide open throttle. It sounds and runs awesome, but i'm afraid i'm gonna red line it.

Thanks, I kind of figured i would have to remove the limiters, I just went down and cut the tabs off. I just thought that there might be a way to remove them without clipping them off? I'll test today and put the tach on it if i can get it to four stroke.

I have found that with limiter caps that you have to remove them periodically. To be able to richen them up, as they will run to lean. Especially with saw that get a lot of hours put on them.

I clipped the tabs off and took the saw down to the wood pile Yesterday afternoon, I started with the H turned out 2 turns, and it was 4 stroking, I set the h at about 1 3/4 turns out and it seems pretty close, it still  four strokes a little in the cut but then cleans up and cuts smooth.I think it's still a little rich, but i think i'll leave it a little rich for now
I didn't get a chance to put the tach on it yet, It got dark on me. The saw has all kind of power, I'm really impressed with this meteor P&C.
while i was at it i tested two 026 that i opened the mufflers up on, man did that make a difference, they have the mufflers with just one hole in the front, I just drilled two more holes the same size, one above the existing hole and one below. Thanks for your help, I'll never have another saw with limiter caps, I wonder how many saws burn up running to lean because of the limiters? especially after modifying a saw.  people think there safe because they have the limiters.

I agree with you there. A tach is a saw saver. I have noticed too that limiters from the factory will not let you go any richer. So as soon as you do any mod you have to pull the caps.
