Getting ready for winter too Fish. Got the t-post in for snow fencing.

They picked up the 211 this evening, cant wait to here the dealer wiggle around on getting out of this one. Hope they step up and do them right like the guy with the 311 and his missing air filter.   

I for one always double check others work once I get home, dealer or not. Once before a trip I was in hurry and had a new truck of mine back in early 90's oil changed.  Got home and it showed 1 quart over full.   :o

Just had a 21 dropped off and IMO just a carb adjustment needed. Owner complaint. Start up hit throttle it dies.  I am betting to lean L.

What kind of plastic stops are on these newer saws like the 211?  Removal-able or trim plastic tab etc?  They look black around H and L from my quick look see.

Seems to have full L adjustment. Was able to take out the dying on WOT by opening the L up and no bogs after warm. Will test tomorrow to make sure on a cold start.

Man I love the easy start on  these.  8)

Test on cold start today. Just a hair of a bog still but didnt die like before. Opened the L up some more and seems real good now aka perfect and turned the I idle up some to make up for it.
So test on cold start tomorrow to see. 

Just glad to have full adjustment on the L.   8)

Tested today and perfect to my liking cold start and when warm. Great throttle response now with no hesitation. Owner will be a happy camper IMO.

Stihl 211 complaint of gas leak. I can not find a gas leak at all.

Only typical oil line from oil tank leak. 🤷🏼‍♂️

1125 122 7403 screw
1123 121 2904 choke

This choke shaft moves easily to side. I am thinking it will just wear another choke plate out and do it again in years down the road.
Maybe whole carb replacement? Going to run that by owner.
Or if keeping it cheap side with just choke and screw I wont be responsible if it does it again.
