If I keep the saw warm under the floor vent on my truck, everything is fine

Throttle cable sticking, butterfly not aligned or bent shaft. Those are things to check.

Could you slightly waller out the shaft holes? Maybe add some grease or graphite or both

If you tried resetting the throttle plate then it's time to pull.the shaft.

Didn't have any problems like this in 38+ degree weather. Only when it's colder, I will be switching to husky xp+ oil here shortly, cannot afford red armor any longer

I assume you already tried spraying the carburetor shafts/linkages with wd40 and see if it still does it?

Try turning in the idle stop screw a 1/4 turn or so, and see if it still binds.

Yep sprayed the shafts, no change, only thing that works with lube is pb blaster sprayed into the mixture jet screw holes, then immediately it works perfect

I find that the carbs can rub on the plastic carb base. the throttle shaft on the flywheel side of the carb has a piece (the idle screw stop) that tends to drag on the carb base. grind a little room on the carb base, or on the idle screw stop.

at 10:45 here ... on a 350 :)



oh, and heres the best price on el42s... $45 from jacks.
