Got a link to that carb for $30 and how reliable is this source

I have bought from them and they are OK. Way more reliable than Ebay. He says that the carb may need a rebuild just in case, but likely it is fine as is.

chainsawr dot com will get you there. I would post the link here but AS tends to remove them or replace them with asterisks.

...or suspend your access for 3 days and threaten to ban you for helping someone. True story.

clogged fuel cap? chk fuel line in tank?make sure its not soft and collapsing which would stop fuel flow

 

[bikemike]

Jut order a holley double pumper 650 it has accelerator pumps yeah it will give you all the fuel you want. And also put a crome exhaust tip on ur saw. The crome will add another 2 hp

Excuse my stupidity everyone, thought you guys were referring to a vendor on here

Even if you get a used carb from chainsawr dot com, you still have to take it all apart to make sure it's good to go. It's a lot smarter to rip into the one you have and make it work.

Yes we were talking about the JEGS vendor for saw parts. They have quarter master clutch packs. Nice shocks for the av saws. Hot rod cams to make more torque and big super chargers and turbos for higher chain speed and quick change gears for the for recoil springs

Only reason for a new or used carb is if you have bad damage to the carb itself or has been oxidized and pitted

 

[TimberTramp420]

well my carbs knock off so im just want to replace everything with stock oem parts but now that I think about it this saw is pretty minty now the piston,exhaust,coil,sparkplug,air filter,fuel filter and fuel line, intake plenum and stater assembly are all new and oem parts

 

[TimberTramp420]

yeah carb must be ****** anyway cleaned the crap out of it and runs a little better but still dies second i hit throttle, just going to have to replace with oem one

id try the main nozzle before you swap the whole thing. nozzles are cheap enough. sometimes the check valves in them will stick open and allow air to enter the metering chamber at idle. they'll lean out and puke off idle. 1135 121 5401

 

[Stihl99]

TT420 did the seller inform you the carb was a non oem replacement carb on your saw before you purchased it?

 

[TimberTramp420]

no just played dumb and said it runs great which it did for awhile.. lol

 

[Stihl99]

Oh I would be torqued, I would contact them and ask them for the price of the carb since they misrepresented it.
I was looking at a 261c last week, it looked like new and when I asked them more about the saw I then found out that guy was a second owner on a saw less than a year old so I just said no thanks not interested. It is sad too many saw flippers and non trust-worthy folks around.

 

[TimberTramp420]

exactly it was a saw flipper by the name of dave out of whitehall ohio I cant say for all his work us this one he cheaped out on, took the saw home first cut noticed the exhuast wasnt on all the way found out later he or PO broke bolt in head and I had to tap and die it out
