Husqvarna K770 Power Cutter Repair, replacing the carburettor

[@simonwiggle1791]

Oh how annoying, I think Husqvarna changed the cylinder design in 2013.. I think the distance between the inlet tracts is different on the older cylinder.. Did you manage to sort it out and get the saw running?.. Cheers, Simon..

It is waiting on the shelf for the correct intake plate, you are right I didn't know about this intake differences. I've bought a new intake plate on August which was meant to be the right one. Unfortunately it arrived earlier on this week from the U.S. , they sent me the exact same one and I was going to make the last video covering this repair, delayed till the correct plate comes in the mail. I've ordered an used one this time, again from the US, it's likely to arrive here in Italy on October. Hopefully it will be the right one. This week video has been delayed because I've had problems with this one too unfortunately. But at least I can sort it out easily.

I have never had to adjust a replacement carburetor even the cheap Amazon ones once I put it on the machine I don’t have the issue. All my Hondas and other machines that have had carburetors changed do not have issues anymore and I do not turn a screw on them, that’s why I buy them because I’m not that good with adjusting them. I’ve messed up a perfectly good carburetor before turning screws.😂

Well you should try to get something inexpensive which you can destroy and try. I think I've destroyed only one chainsaw engine in the learning process. I think I was 15 or 16 at the time, today after 10 years I use a tachometer to be safe, I can go without but on this machine you have to be spot on or below. If it spins faster an abrasive wheel might explode potentially causing injuries

@@Dany_FIX_DIY I was looking at that looks pretty cool. I will be tearing down my 770 to see what happened. Just picked up a 970 to replace it.

@@jackhinkle1401 that's great, I have an Instagram too if you need to ask something specific during the process. I'll be happy to help if I can . Meanwhile the new intake plate is on the way so hopefully I'll be able to make another video about hopefully getting it running finally
