Default RE: Saito 56 starting problems


ORIGINAL: bradharvy

I just got a saito 56 and would like to know how or where I should start on the low end. I think yhe high end is ok. I tached it and ran it down 500 rpm from highest point,. Seems to sputter and die or needs alot a trim to stay running. Does a pinch test work on these?
A pinch test works as long as you don't cut off the fuel flow completely. That's because it doesn't have a crankcase load like a 2 stroke does. Pinch the line just enough to restrict fuel flow a little bit or it will die. Do you have the manual?
