My homelite chainsaw has less than 5 hours on it. Recently it will not idle. To keep it running you have to give it full throttle. I adjusted the idle speed but that does not help.
dirty carb!buy some carb cleaner and a carb kit. Also try turning the low speed out 1/4 turn, if this does not do anything put in a carb kit and clean the carb.
