same lower hose as the 066 right ?Hello Al my name is George and I've been following this thread closely trying to learn what is going on with your saw. I'm a Stihl techinican and work everyday. I don't post on OPE fourm because my time is very limited, but I have one thing to mention that may or may not be helpful. Twice I have found OEM fuel lines restricted where the fuel filter plugs in a defect. You may need to diascect that fuel line like a worm and take a look for restrictions. Probably not your problem but thought I might throw that in. Hope you get your saw fixed.
does sound logical starving the carb fuel with the butterfly in the normal idle positionHello Al my name is George and I've been following this thread closely trying to learn what is going on with your saw.

Glad you caught the joke. Complete error, but no detriment.Mickey Mouse exhaust? Tongue in cheek tribute to IH?
We all know Mickey enhances the return of unspent fuel...
Lolz.
Nothing touched.did you do any piston work? ie strato timing
Thank you for the advice, it’s appreciated.Hello Al my name is George and I've been following this thread closely trying to learn what is going on with your saw.

That would be great, I have one here. Similar setup with the 90, but second hose much longer.same lower hose as the 066 right ?
There is a tit at around 1 O’clock in your pic that’s hidden. It’s indexed correctly, but I see how it could be an issue. Thanks John,Gduvic advice is solid. If that isnt it Doc, when you do take off carb and I know this is highly implausible, pay attention to strato divider between carb and boot. Its indexed and Im sure not installed wrong but I could see where it could possibly affect throttle plate.View attachment 225760
New carb and solenoid!? why not just a new short block. How are we going to positively identify the cause with you trying to get the problem fixed?
Ditto brotherdammit.... I had a long winded response all typed up then decided to reset my "Sarcasm" checker and it came up "positive" for innernet funny.... you got me.
I got the throttle rod out of whack in the handle on mine and caused a similar issue.
