Question:
Should I have bought a stihl ? So I just bought a husq 235 xtorq , I used it twice total of maybe an hour and it worked great . 2 weeks later , it takes all I have to get it to crank and when I finally get it to crank , it won't idle . So if I feather the throttle it will run but wide open it bogs down and shuts off , half throttle it will run until I try to start cutting and bogs down. Gas mixture in using is 50:1 husq 2 stroke oil . The saw first smoke at all. Changed spark plug tried adjusting idle screw . I'm lost I thought husqvarna was top of the line .

Hi Kevin,
I'm sorry your having trouble with your saw. Unfortunately sounds like you need your carburetor adjusted or cleaned. This has to be performed by an authorized service center due to EPA regulations. You can find your local servicing dealer here. /images/us/dealers/dealer-locator/ .
