I have an older Stihl HS60AV and it comes with a Tekei carb. I can't find a rebuild kit. The carb has one hole seen on the side above the center of the big hole. Is that an impulse hole? I am finding what appear to be comparable carbs for the size motor, but I see some with a double hole, one...

Thank you for the info, but at the prices I'm seeing, it just won't be worth it. I'll have to see if I can scrounge a used one somewhere. I see it has 2 (impulse?) holes, mine only has one, not sure if that's a show stopper...

Hi-I got this hedge trimmer from my Dad, and it has a Takei carb. I cannot find a rebuild kit for it. I would be ok with replacing it with a Zama or Walbro or equivalent, but I cannot find one. Does anyone know of a replacement? The trimmer is approx 36cc...

I can’t say i know what was wrong with the old one but it had a bunch of wear on both sides and possibly air was leaking. Glad it worked. It was Walbro 501 35 55-01. The throttle cable catch is slightly different than the wj-39 so I had to get a new one of those, and also the choke linkage hole...

Grabbed a new $12 walbro for 395’s and installed it- few pulls and it fired and ran. Old carb in trash.

The umpire mask won’t protect the top of my head- I needa get a hardhat

Great point. I cut alone, but imagine if someone was strolling through the woods wow LOL

You're funny. What got me was the guy who was cutting a clear round in the open, and it suddenly bucked. We've all done that thousands of times...The instant you wake up with a blown out eye and a facefull of gashes is the instant you say 'why didn't I?'...and I often cut out on a property that...

I converted a 394 also, and it has seemed to me to be up and down in performance, but I'm too old to remember what exactly transpired since the conversion. Now it pulls now fuel. I've checked the fuel line, newer filter, and cleaned the carb 2x. I've just pulled the welch and it's clean, and...

After hearing from a friend of a friend, and seeing the bar to the face article a week or so ago, I went out and bought a baseball umpire facemask. Yep, I'm not taking the risk anymore. I've never had even a close call with kickback, but I've had a couple of kickers, nothing ever significant...

Unsharp saw owners tend to push which generates heat and stretching chains that keep needing tightening and this cycles until you run out of adjustment. Get it shortened and focus on laser sharp teeth.

Husky 372. Big enough to do most but small enough to not wear you out and uses less gas than a bigger saw

Running lean on the top end can blow a p&c also.

Also I did check the fuel tank vent, and with some pressure, saw bubbles, so that's fine.

I don't use the old intake obviously, since the 395 jug has an impulse line. Simonian even shows how to convert a 94 to 95, which I followed. Outside of drilling welch plugs or some other way to know if the carb is the issue, what else can i do to double check the carb? As mentioned, there's...

Converted 394 to a 395 jug and changed the intake, used the wj39 from tge 394 but drilled the carb top and added a nipple for the impulse line, sealed around it of course. Rebuilt the carb a year ago and can’t remember when things started but i think this has been happening a while, but not...

Cheap fallers gloves at harbor frieght. White gauze material cheap and keep cool and chuck when ruined

I run Husky 52/72/394, and mostly use full chisel chains. I've most used the pocket Husky roller file, and it does seem to be pretty good, but the rollers do wear down, and if ya don't replace em, I think it could affect sharpening. I also purchased the Grandberg file n guide, which mounts to...

Hmm. Hard to know if that'll hold...will think about it

Could you post a pic and price?
