Of course it doesn't - however some Salafis have some beliefs that many would say do put them out of the fold of Ahlus Sunnah

ok, I understand they are still Muslim. But doesn't it put them of of the fold of Ahlus Sunnah?

From the time the Ulama delved into the finer details of Kalaam, and
split hairs of issues of Aqaaid, many groups arose. From the Ahlus sunnah
wal Jama`, two scholars presented the view of Haqq in these issues. There
were Imaam Abul Hasan al-Ashaari and Imaam Abu Mansoor Maturidi.
In brief, as far as these complext and intricate debates on Kalaam is
concerned, the view of the Ahlus Sunnah is confined to the schools of these
two scholars. All other schools of thought are on Baatil. It does not mean
that all those that preceded these two schools were not Muslim, for in the
first place, these intricate issues were never raised in the former times.
Furthermore, a person can be a complete and perfect Mu'min without getting
involved in these complex matters. Such was the position of the Sahaaba and
most of the Taabi'een. However, should one wish to enter the arena of these
philosophical issues, then one has to confine oneself to one of these two
schools, for all the other schools who have taken up a standpoint as far as
these issues are concerned are on Baatil. The Haqq in this arena is confined
to the two schools.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Mufti Ebrahim Desai According to the respected Mufti, these two schools make up Ahlus Sunnah, and all other schools of theology are on the baatil. Since salafi's dont follow any of these two schools are they still part of ahlus sunnah?
