    I ran it through a little bit of pole wood over at my brother's, I think it's cutting better than it has since I've owned it.

    Nice! Gota love:D the 034-036 saws. They are fast cutters and great handling saws to boot.

    Thing I have learned from this project: check price of a new carb vs price of carb kit. LA= idle. Lot of smoke from idle to full throttle means L is too rich. Counter clockwise enrichens, clockwise leans.

    Small engine carb kits are often not worth it, you can buy the carb for just a few dollars more.

    Nice. I've gotta get my 034av back up and running. Needs a carb kit so does my 028 super. Been stuck with my old McCulloch saws. I'm sure they were good in their day but mine are more of shelf hangers. Not work saws.
