Default How do you "tune up" a hard-to-start Craftsman 18" chainsaw

That makes sense. I practically filled the thing with carb cleaner today.
I'm letting it all dry out before I try again.

If this last ditch effort doesn't work, plan B is to bring it to a shop for
an estimate.

Plan C, is to buy a NON-CALIFORNIA chain saw on the net. Can you recommend
a good place to buy chain saws (NON CALIFORNIA EMISSIONS) that actually
have adjustable "L" low and "H" high screws for the carb?
