Red head 2252

[Boomer 87]

Hi all, been along while since ive posted anything on here, took a sabbatical from saws for awhile, but starting a couple projects.

I have a jonsered 2252 that i bought knowing it didnt run correctly. It will fast idle but will not run WOT no matter what. Im just going to buy new carb and fuel line/filter. I remember reading about certain model carbs to avoid. But i dont know if that pertains to the 2252. Will i be safe just buying a carb from like ereplacement parts or the likes there of. Or does anyone on here sell oem parts i can buy from. Thanks

For sure you'll want to make sure the carb and coil are compatible. You have to pair them. A new carb will likely be without software loaded.

So will i have to buy both pieces?, or can i buy the carb then take it to a dealer and have software downloaded and be ok? Im sorry in advance i literally know nothing about autotune stuff.

You will need the coil part # for the dealer to program the carb for your saw. I believe any coil can be used for any carb.

So if i buy a carb from the dealer, i can give them the coil part number, they can they download whats needed to the new carb only? Or will i have to take in the whole saw?

Just the coil number and they can program it

Ok, next queston, is there anybody on here that does that, i dont have a dealer close by who wants to mess with it. I had a shop do a master reboot they called it, it didnt help. They said that was all they could do.

Not sure if this helps or if you even want to bother with trying it, but I got a new carb and computer for a 562xp. Rather than taking it to be programmed, I swapped the computer off the old carb to the new one and it works fine. If your computer already has the newest updates I don't see any reason why this wouldn't work for you.

 

[Boomer 87]

Idk if my computer is all updated or not, the guy i had hook it up said it wasnt calling for any updates. On a 2013 model saw, i kinda thought that was odd.

 

[Boomer 87]

Well, i have a carb coming from local dealer, will the saw need to be programmed after i install the new carb? Or since they had rebooted it already, can i slap it on and go?

 

[Boomer 87]

So, trying to revive an old thread. I never got my new carb i guess they didnt want my money too badly. Is there anybody on here a dealer who can sell me a new carb with all the software updates downloaded. Ive talked to bob he no longer sells online
