Thanks for the replies. This machine is a yth1542 husqvarna it has sat for several years. I replaced the carb, the fuel line and filter replaced the plugs, air filter, cleaned out the gas tank. Engine oil and filter. Engine starts but chases the idle if I pinch the fuel line the engine smooths out. It seems to run better with less fuel. There is no adjustment in the float and needle valve that I know of. Any ideas would be helpful.
