Stihl 026 carb

[steveo3366]

I have a Stihl 026 that needs a carb replacement. I removed the existing one and it
Is a Walbro WT 22B and I can't find much on that model. I have the IPL for the 026 and it has several carb models but not that one. Is there a more readily available carb that is similar to to wt 22b that I can bolt on? Any advice would be great

Check out eBay. I bought a Chinese Walbro clone for my 025 for less than $14. Just looked, a couple of sellers say the WT-194 is a good replacement.

When I took the carb off the gas tank was pressurized and siphoned all the gas out of the tank, I assume it has something to do with the tank vent, any advice?

That is normal, the tank vent lets air into the tank but needs to seal fuel fumes inside the tank to meet EPA regulations.

Just look at the top of the main page, directly across to the right hand side there is a blue box with white print that says something like , Post New Thread, click on that and a new page will open for you to post on.
