    Want to Buy need help! stihl 046 carb.

    Here is one, seems kinda steep https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F332830181512 There are a few regular hd-16 on eBay for 35ish, but if you specifically need the 16c that’s the cheapest I could find.

    Port timing setup

    Nothing earth shattering here... Just wanted to post my port timing setup. I was having a hard time getting the needle to not move around while timing, so I built this “tool” to help. Works well and is sturdy. Made out of aluminum bar stock, a sheet metal screw, and a wire of your choosing.

    You may have better luck than me! I’ve heard nothing but good things about meteor, that’s why I bought one.

    Stihl 046 port timing
