Do you have any pictures of the muffler mods on the 025?+1
I have (2) 250C's and an 025. With a muffler mod and a 16" bar they're quite the little limbing saw. And very light in weight for a 45cc saw.
FWIW, you can get a Chinese carb on amazon, shipped to your door, for $13.
You can eliminate the (useless) primer bulb.
That says the mixture is too lean.Well pulled it apart again checked intake boot and pulse line and fuel line all good, compression good, piston looks perfect intake and exhaust side. It will fire under full choke and rev until you touch the throttle on half choke. Gonna drive over this junk with the tractor soon.
I bnought this Chinese Walbro for my 025. Has low and high adjustment and works fine. IIRC, they also sell a kit for it. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Carburetor-...170?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item43d08c0172I have a friend who has a 250 with the same symptoms. It will start and run on full choke. But when you take it off choke, it starts dying and eventually just stops running. He ran the saw out of gas when he last used it, months ago, and refilled it with 93 octane mix this spring. As far as I know, he hasn't fiddled with mixture, so I have to assume he's either got an air leak or the carb is partially clogged.
Is the Walbro carb the one to buy? Is the Chinese version any good? I may end up putting a carb on it for him; that may be simpler than me trying to clean the carb and put a kit in it.
I order carbs for the homeowner grade Husky's all the time. They suffer from the same issues as the Stihl homeowner saw carbs. Both have unserviceable internal check valves. I suppose you could develop a way to fix them, but that costs tons more than just putting a new carb on them.Well ordered a carb. This is my last stihl ever, you should never need to buy a new carb. 4 husqvarna and no problems think I'll stick with them.

I've got one here at the shop with primer bulb. If I rebuild this one it's coming off. The carburetor with all the fuel lines, etc. is all crammed in the air box and doesn't leave much room to work. I'd also change out that junk carb that looks like you can't adjust.I was thinking the same. Mine does not have one.
I have 025/250's with both Zama and Walbro carbs. Other Stihls I have have a Tilotson.Nope this stihl is a zama husqvarnas I have are walboro and Tillotson
