Easy way to figure it out without a diagram. Connect the filtered fuel line from the tank to either port of the carburetor. Leave other carb port open. Press purge bulb several times. If the filtered line is connected to the correct carb port, fuel will spurt out the open carb port. No fuel, switch filtered line to the other carb port and repeat purge to verify correct connection.
Warning, NEVER use the unfiltered fuel line for this procedure.
I don't generally like to work on 2cycles. Reed valves are under the carb on the ones I've seen. I watched this whole video of a 250 being disassembled and I didn't see reed valves. It looks like a ported piston design to me aka no reed valve. I'm willing to be wrong.

Hi guys, hadthe same problem before and it was basically a build up of dirt and oil on the control lever there is a copper connection on the pivot part of the control lever. If you get some carb cleaner in a spray can and just give it a good clean and as a rule blow througha nd clean your saw with compressed air regularly. aif you cant stop the saw by putting the lever to 0 put it to Choke on that will stop it.
Good luck
Hope it helps
Steve
