Thank you. I looked up the Husqvarna manual in Swedish(I am born and live here) but when it came to adjustments it said seek a professional. They are not what they Once were. The Sewing machines they made way back in the days always even came with grease on every single screw. Well done 🙂
You saved me a ton of money. I have this exact Husqvarna and its almost new and wouldn't run. I bought the carb tools for $10 a set and followed your video exactly. Runs great now!!
You have been the most helpful out of probably 30 videos I just tried watching. They kept talking about the specific one they are doing... Thanks for a good break down!
Man, after watching at least 30 videos and still not getting the info I needed, I found this. Definitely the clearest off all. Excellent job! Thanks, brothuh!
Thanks for the video, should of tried this before buying a new carb. I still had to adjust the new one, but not bad for 8 years. If I would of had the tool I would I tried it first!
Both all the way in both out 1 1/4 Then turn out until engine reaches its highest smooth est RPM.Not over said easy to remember thank you.Sometimes the best teacher's are the young!!
How About doing a video on uninstall cleaning and reinstall of a craftsman 26.5 cc carburetor (weed wacker) I can't find anything worthwhile on this machine. Thanks for the consideration. Your videos are very good! Better than most. Keep them coming. Thanks
Good video, super helpful. In the video you mention you thought about doing another video on how to tune chainsaws but I don’t see it. I see where you work on one but no video on tuning. I would be interested to see how it’s different from a 2-cycle string trimmer.
I'm working on a husqvarna 128LD And I spent an hour trying to tune it and all I got out of it. Is it will run when I'm squeezing the throttle, but as soon as I let go it dies, it will not idle and it's a brand new carburetor And I put a brand new air filter on it. And new fuel lines fuel filter And spark plug and it will not idle and now it doesn't want to start when it dies. What could that be?
Great video, info, and explanation. Also that tidbit at the end confirmed what I was thinking....not the trimmer for my needs. Very reliable and would recommend...I've put 2 years and untold hours on mine and still runs like new but I just need more power. Is there a larger, budget trimmer you like? 4+acres What's your opinion on premixed fuels? (TruFuel, etc). Seems like a scam but I've used for 4 years with great, but expensive results. I was probably doing it wrong before... Thanks again, hope to hear back
Great to here you enjoyed the video. It sounds like you definitely should upgrade your trimmer. Straight shaft trimmers don’t lose power like in the bend of a curved shaft trimmer. So there’s a start. I would highly recommend the Stihl Fs 90r. It’s a straight shaft trimmer that is legendary for its reliability and power. It takes 2 stroke gas but it’s 4 stroke. A really cool design. I am getting off track. If you want a cheaper trimmer I would recommend a Stihl Fs 56r. I personally use that myself but I would get the Fs 90r any day for more serious work. (I have had a lot of experience with both trimmers) And for the fuel, Trufuel is extremely good and is much better long term if the trimmer doesn’t run a lot. So I would buy a good synthetic 2 stroke oil and mix up with pump gas. Regular gas is perfect. That at the end of the season put Trufuel gas in it. (Fill it up) And make sure your trimmer gets ran once a month during storage. Sorry for the long message. I have a lot to say about this stuff. Thanks -Jake
@@jakesgarage3300 great info, I'll take all I can get! I saw this reply too late (maybe). I bought a Ryobi 30cc 4 stroke straight shaft as I was trying to keep it under $300. Leaking oil right away! Checked screws around gasket & oil plug O-ring but still leaked. Returned to Home Depot with no problems. Hopefully just a lemon...haven't cranked the new one. Great performance from what I saw. A little heavy but no big deal. Fingers crossed and thanks again.
It’s been a long time since I had my hands on that trimmer. But I believe that was full throttle. This is a little unit that’s a bit under powered so it doesn’t sound too beefy. It’s also possible I was only doing half throttle. Thanks for watching!
Hey guys..ive got a 335rx husqvarna..abs my idle scews only makes 1 complete turn..in and out..so im not sure how to ajust it..any help..it was made some time around 2004 so im not sure if the carb is jus different
In my experience I have never seen a kill switch break or go bad beyond easy repair. Usually it’s not really common we’re I live. But if the problem is isolated to just the switch then usually I find the contacts need cleaning. That can be done with electrical safe cleaners.
Kill switch is usually wired so it will stay stuck closed. It will start just won’t kill the engine. So if the switch won’t kill it, check connections.
Check if your gas lines are in good condition. If they are in good condition the carburetor will need cleaned and rebuild. The diaphragm pumps might be stiff, have a pin hole or cracked. A carburetor rebuild kit installed correctly will most likely solve your fuel delivery problem. If it still doesn't run like it should afterwards a carburetor tune up/adjustment is needed. This video is the best guide to get it back to how it should be. Remember when turning a carburetor a small adjustment will make a big difference. I wish you the best of luck and a blessed life.
do you have to tune right out of the box or does it come tuned already, because i just used mine for the first time and it feels like it loses power after a few minutes of running
Hey Jeremy, New equipment is supposed to be pretuned but on a assembly line stuff doesn’t always get done to the highest standards. I would make sure you have ran about 2-3 tanks of gas through the engine before retuning to let the engine break in. Hopefully this helps. And remember watch out for those silly limiter caps.
Ed, sorry this wasn’t the video for you. Or the way I describe stuff doesn’t fit your timeframe. Sometimes slowing down and explaining things is better. Just look at all the people I helped in the comments. But clearly I couldn’t help you. Again, I am so sorry. Good day
Thank you. I looked up the Husqvarna manual in Swedish(I am born and live here) but when it came to adjustments it said seek a professional. They are not what they Once were.

This is ond of the best tutorials on tuning carbs ive seen. You cover ig all. Id love to see you make many more videos Thanks
You saved me a ton of money. I have this exact Husqvarna and its almost new and wouldn't run. I bought the carb tools for $10 a set and followed your video exactly. Runs great now!!
That’s great! Glad this helped!
Best video on this subject. Thank you much.
You have been the most helpful out of probably 30 videos I just tried watching. They kept talking about the specific one they are doing... Thanks for a good break down!
Thanks for the tutorial. The adjustment tool for the Huskies is the 21 spline driver.
Tons of videos are out there on this. This one is the best! Thanks a ton!
Man, after watching at least 30 videos and still not getting the info I needed, I found this. Definitely the clearest off all. Excellent job! Thanks, brothuh!
Thanks Jake excellent video. I followed your instructions my Husky is humming now.
Thanks for the video, should of tried this before buying a new carb. I still had to adjust the new one, but not bad for 8 years. If I would of had the tool I would I tried it first!
Thanks Jake, for this well articulated helpful video !
Thank you! Very clear, step-by-step instructions. Saved me a bunch of money and aggravation. P.S. Love your GSD!
Thanks for the clear explanation, man.
I use a small Phillips Screwdriver with a electrical splice. That fits the high low adjustment screw.
Running well. Better than new really. Thanks sir.
Fantastic explanation, I've watched several videos, and fault with my new carb. I feel like I can get it next time. Thanks
Both all the way in both out 1 1/4
Then turn out until engine reaches its highest smooth est RPM.Not over said easy to remember thank you.Sometimes the best teacher's are the young!!
Thanks for the tips - enjoyed the vid.
Wish I would have watched this before I ran into town. Lol.

This was very informative. Thanks 😎👍

Cheers for the help mate really appreciate it !
Best video on this
Nice video but T.M.I!! ARE YOU STONED! TAKES FOREVER for you to explain the obvious 😂
I was thinking the same 😂
Great detail explained.
I'm working on a husqvarna 128LD And I spent an hour trying to tune it and all I got out of it. Is it will run when I'm squeezing the throttle, but as soon as I let go it dies, it will not idle and it's a brand new carburetor And I put a brand new air filter on it. And new fuel lines fuel filter And spark plug and it will not idle and now it doesn't want to start when it dies. What could that be?
Got a Craftsman/ Husqvarna bullhorn trimmer that I had to replace the carburetor and still have to adjust it
I’ve got a 225L it’s a great strimmer but it only runs while I’m squeezing the throttle it cuts out as soon as i let go
Big up from Scotland Jake

Is there a larger, budget trimmer you like? 4+acres

Thanks for the video! Very informative
got rid of my low end stumble on my 128ld. why didnt yours rev up toward the end of video?

Worked perfectly. Thanks!
Worked great thanks. Brand new and so crappy. Runs like a top now. 👍
I live in Commifornia and I can not find the tool to adjust my new 130L 🤬
Genius
How often does a kill switch go bad?
In my experience I have never seen a kill switch break or go bad beyond easy repair. Usually it’s not really common we’re I live. But if the problem is isolated to just the switch then usually I find the contacts need cleaning. That can be done with electrical safe cleaners.
Kill switch is usually wired so it will stay stuck closed. It will start just won’t kill the engine. So if the switch won’t kill it, check connections.
My stihl fs36 won’t run off of full choke do you have any idea about what I should do?
Check if your gas lines are in good condition. If they are in good condition the carburetor will need cleaned and rebuild. The diaphragm pumps might be stiff, have a pin hole or cracked. A carburetor rebuild kit installed correctly will most likely solve your fuel delivery problem. If it still doesn't run like it should afterwards a carburetor tune up/adjustment is needed.

It’s orange?
great video buddy!

My Husq runs perfect now. Thank you
Good job.
do you have to tune right out of the box or does it come tuned already, because i just used mine for the first time and it feels like it loses power after a few minutes of running
Hey Jeremy, New equipment is supposed to be pretuned but on a assembly line stuff doesn’t always get done to the highest standards. I would make sure you have ran about 2-3 tanks of gas through the engine before retuning to let the engine break in. Hopefully this helps. And remember watch out for those silly limiter caps.
Manual says 8-10 tanks then tune it.
It comes rich for break in.
Smidge?
Most excellent guy
Have this same raggedy ass trimmer, hopefully your video can help me out.
That's what's up
Get with it
Thank you for the video!
Gsd!!!❤️
Enough with the tool please. I feel like I watched a whole movie on the screw driver
i lost interest, to much woffal
3 minutes of screw driver, who cares, get it done.
Dude, you talk too much. Just get to it. This video could've been 5 minutes.
Ed, sorry this wasn’t the video for you. Or the way I describe stuff doesn’t fit your timeframe. Sometimes slowing down and explaining things is better. Just look at all the people I helped in the comments. But clearly I couldn’t help you. Again, I am so sorry. Good day
Damn son. Mix oil? Mix gas? Just say mix gas. 😬🫨😂 we understand boy. 😮
