My Homelite 23AV chainsaw doesn't idle. It starts and runs fine, but never idles, runs too fast without giving it any gas. Is some linkage stuck or what? I have new gas, air filter, and spark plug.
There are usually 3 adjustment screws on these - one mechanically opens the throttle stop lever on the carb to allow a tickover - the other 2 are mixture screws, one for adjusting the slow speed mixture, the other for the high speed mixture. See if you can adjust the first screw initially - it will probably sort things.
