I have a ms261 stihl without the m- tronic its a 2015 model, German built and its only got about 2 full tanks through it. I had it about a year now i guess. Had alot of snow here in east tn./ s.w. va. where i live and had some cedars come down. I been working on getting trees cut and noticed my 261 sure sounds lean on top end and i tried to adjust to make the h jet richer and tried the 2mm allen wrench to turn the limiter. Well it turned but never felt stripped so i turned it richer probably 1 or 2 turns, but the limiter screw slot stay in the same spot straight up and down. So i figured it didnt work and i went to start the saw and its rich bad and smoking. Or something else happened? Is it possible i was making the high richer when turning the allen wrench, even though the limiter screw slot is still in the same position and still stops after 3/4 of a turn right or left? Please help any experience with this.
