Husky 136 tuning problems help needed

So carb refurb kit arrived and I duly fitted new seals after carefully cleaning it. No signs of debis.
Refitted and filled up with Aspen. Reset low and high jets as per Husky maintenance video. Absolute pig to start but eventually managed when holding it at full throttle. Eventually managed to get it running but cannot get it to idle at a speed low enough to stop the chain moving. Tried adjusting low and high and low speed settings and still cannot sort it.
Now to start choke on couple of pulls choke off hold throttle in and will start.
Air filter fuel filter are good. Exhaust is clean. What do I need to do?

Back to the start with the settings, after your first pulls to fire then it should not require full throttle to then start. Your settings sound close but not correct. I think the low jet is a little lean but it been a while since fiddling with the carb

I had a bit of faff when I did my carb kit, IIRC the base line settings for a 136 are different from the other saws in the range, also did you wind you idle screw back to slow the idle down.
The issue I had when I got the saw for free as a spares or repair was the fact the fuel line had a hole in it, would run fine with the choke out but stalled out as soon as you pushed it in.

Leave the high alone and turn the low a fraction anti clock wise and keep giving it one pull and a fraction till it starts , leave the throttle closed .
adjust the idle when it starts and runs , should be no hestitation or bog on the throttle .
Get a tacho for the high jet setting to be safe or run it warm and set it in the wood cutting till it four strokes noise .
