Most chain saws have a simple adjusting screw that is tapered on the end to a point. The throttle plate actuator arm rests against the taper. A clockwise rotation of the adjustment causes the arm to slide slightly further up the inclined point, opening the throttle plate a tiny bit which results in a slightly higher idle.

Idle speed is entirely different than the low speed adjustment.

Sir, what is the starting adjustments on a Poluan 2000 Carb

Typical for any carburetor is 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 turns (out). These are just rough settings to get the saw running. Remove chain, turn idle throttle speed screw in to increase idle rpms so its less likely to stall. Follow mfg instructions for starting.

Once running, adjust low speed mix and allow a couple minutes to warm. Then re-adjust low speed and lower idle rpms by turning out idle throttle speed screw. Then with throttle wide open adjust high speed mix. If saw hesitates from idle to full throttle, open low speed mix 1/8 turn and readjust high speed mix.

If saw doesn't fire in 3 or 4 pulls remove plug. If plug is dry no fuel, if wet either no spark or idle mix to rich (or fuel metering may be fouled).

Ryobi 725r trimmer carburetor adjustment

Turn both low and high adjustment screws carefully clockwise all the way in - do not overtighten.. Then back out each two full turns. Set the idle speed control for highest setting. Prime and start and let it run and warm up for about 15 seconds - then lower the rpms a tad and then adjust the low end screw for highest rpm. Then reset the idle to lower reasonable level. You may have to go back and forth with those two adjustments till it runs fine at low idle speed..

Then accelerate to highest speed and set the high adjustment for highest rpm. Then go from idle to high speed. If not smooth a small adjustment on the high speed screw is in order. Keep doing that until you get a nice smooth transition form low speed to high speed.

How do I adjust idle speed?

You can't adjust the idle , There is a minimum idle adjustment set at the factory , you don't want to mess with that . The PCM / ECM ,engine computer controls the idle speed by the idle air control valve (motor) . You may have a dirty throttle plate mess with the base idle .Check out this video on ford base idle adjustment . Some one who didn't know cranked up the base idle causing problems Ford IAC valve test how to adjust minimum idle speed

It idles fast if I turn the idle down it stalls running rich on top end at fast idle sometimes it will drop to a very low idle and shut off

adjust the idle mixture screws first and then adjust the idle speed screw to compensate
adjusting the idle mixture screws will alter the idle speed but when properly adjusted then adjust the idle speed screw,

2010 Honda Fury how to adjust the idle speed

To adjust the idle speed on a 2010 Honda Fury, you'll typically need to locate the idle adjustment screw. Here's a general guide:
  1. Locate the Idle Adjustment Screw: It's usually located near the carburetor or throttle body. On the Honda Fury, it might be located on the side of the throttle body. It's typically a small screw with a knob or a slot for a screwdriver.
  2. Warm Up the Engine: Start the motorcycle and let it warm up to normal operating temperature. This ensures that the idle speed adjustment is accurate.
  3. Identify the Current Idle Speed: Use a tachometer to measure the current idle speed. The ideal idle speed for the Honda Fury should be specified in the owner's manual. Typically, it's around 1100-1200 RPM (revolutions per minute).
  4. Adjust the Idle Screw: Turn the idle adjustment screw clockwise to increase the idle speed and counterclockwise to decrease it. Make small adjustments, usually a quarter or half turn at a time.
  5. Monitor the Tachometer: While making adjustments, keep an eye on the tachometer to ensure that the idle speed is within the recommended range.
  6. Test Ride: After making adjustments, take the motorcycle for a short test ride to ensure that the idle speed is stable and that the engine responds well to throttle inputs.
  7. Fine-Tune if Necessary: If the idle speed is still not within the recommended range or if the engine response is not satisfactory, make further adjustments as needed.
  8. Secure the Adjustment: Once you're satisfied with the idle speed, tighten any locking nuts or screws that secure the idle adjustment screw to prevent it from changing unintentionally.
  9. Always refer to the specific instructions provided in the owner's manual for your Honda Fury, as the location of the idle adjustment screw and the recommended idle speed may vary slightly depending on the model year and any aftermarket modifications that have been made to the motorcycle

How do you adjust the high speed mixture screw? I have a Ryobi RLH1100a MK III 31cc line trimmer, and after changing the fuel lines, it will start but not idle more than about 3 - 5 seconds before it...

Hi montex124, I will try to help. In the past few years carb makers have been making changes. Some carbs have no adjustment at all, the ports are all fixed inside the carb. Other carbs have only the idle speed mixture screw that can be adjusted, like yours seems to have. Is this screw you mention at the top and completely outside of the carb to adjust the throttle? If it is it's probably the idle speed screw which can be adjusted to any idle speed you want and has nothing to do with the air fuel mixture but If it is right next to the idle mixture screw, it might be the high speed mixture screw but is capped so it can't be adjusted. The low and high speed mixture screws should be marked next to each screw H and L.
The 1 1/2 turns suggested is sometimes just right but other times has to be adjusted, so you can try adjusting it to get your idle but maybe adjust the idle speed screw first to get a higher RPM so it doesn't stall on you. Like I said earlier it just adjusts the throttle, and is like when you are using it, and giving it gas as they say. I hope this helps just a bit. Regards and good luck. Get back to me if you need more help or just let me know how you did. Denis.

The owners manual for my Ryobi 210 describes carburetor adjustment but the photos do not show which screw is the idle mixture adjuster.

The Low speed adjustment screw is the one marked as "L" and would be adjusted during:
1. Idle - to insure running smoothly, and
2. Acceleration - to transition from Idle to High Speed.

The High speed adjustment screw is the one marked as "H" and would be adjusted during:
1. High speed or Wide Open Throttle. Turn about 1/8 either way to gain top RPM's and then back off slightly.

The final screw is an Idle Set screw. This screw sets the actual speed of the Idle and is the screw attached to the end of the throttle cable as it terminates at the carburetor. Turning it:
1. Clockwise - increases RPM's (speeds up motor)
2. Counter Clockwise - reduces RPM's (slows down the motor)

Where is adjustment for idle located in 528

Idle speed is not adjustable, it is controlled by the fuel injection computer, even if you tried to adjust it the computer would over ride any adjustment made by you. I assure you idle speed has negligible affect on fuel consumption
