So what did you come up with on the 181? What carb is on it. Are you saying the low speed screw is moving around or the idle screw/t labeled screw on Husqvarna.

I haven't looked into it further so far, but I think that the idle bolt is not original.

I'll take a close up picture of the bolt and ask for thoughts and opinions.

I have seen that with time the threads get sloppy and won't hold the screw properly. I know some Tillotson carbs use a piece of plastic or rubber to help hold the idle screw. Pics would be great. Liked the videos and made some comments.

I am supposed to troubleshoot the 181SE for my neighbor who is also my firewood supplier, so that I will try figure out the idle change issue.
I will take pictures of the carb and post them.

As I said before, my videos feature stock saws, regular chains and 100% real life conditions and performance in some dense hard wood which tends to be dirt infested from skidding.
I am glad You like them.

Thank You for watching and commenting!

Nice Wilhelm. You happy with it?

Yep, love it - just need more beech logs, they are so much softer than turkey oak, much more fun to buck.

Dolmar PS-550 with the same play chain in 16" turkey oak.
No sharpening done, the loop has the bucking cuts of the previous video on it.

So you have some Croatian speed wood. Lol
Nice. Chain self feeds well.

Fresh/green beech is a hoot to buck, fun-fun-fun - beautiful snow white chips too.

Light and fluffy. Lol

MMWS Dolmar PS-6100 running new factory round ground Archer chisel chain in beech

The very first cuts I made with the saw since I purchased her from Dan.

Factory stock Dolmar PS-6400 running the same Archer chain as shown in the previous two videos

I admit my PS-6400 may need a summer carb retune, she's a little too rich.

Very nice 6100 Wilhelm. But sorry, I cant like the above post. Hope the chain is OK.
You got carried away from all the extra POWAH. Lol
How do you like the MMWS 6100? I ran that saw. It was very fast. Smooth.
