Well I ended up buying a new ms391 yesterday. I plan on still getting this husky 357xp going. So then I'll have the 391 Stihl and the husky 357 that is currently torn down awaiting a complete rebuild :)

What is everyone's thoughts on a brand ms391? 600 bucks brand new with a 25 inch bar

Ok guys I just need some opinions. There is a guy selling a Stihl ms310 about an HR from me. He is asking $190 for the saw. The only thing is the muffler got a hole in it, and melted a small hole in the top of the oil tank. He fixed the hole with epoxy. Saw runs great. I would be using it for...

Thanks chainsaw Jim for the link. The price is good 50 for oem.

I have a 357xp starts and idles real high for about 20 seconds then dies. If interested make an offer

Where are you located?

What website is everyone getting their parts from? I'm looking for a Zama carb but I type in Zama c3 el42 and a bunch of fake Zama carbs show up. They are only about 15 bucks so im getting the feeling they aren't legit Zama carbs? I'm going to be ordering a carb, a gasket for where the cylinder...

Ok I'll do that. Thanks for all the advice I'll take all I can get. Not too proud to admit I know very little about working on saws. Last one I had was an 028 Stihl I bought for 100 bucks and only thing I had to fix was the pull rope that broke. Had it 6 yrs and I'll admit that it was mistreated.

I went out and tried backing the adjuster screws out and it made zero difference. So I'm going to be ordering a different carb. And possibly a new gasket for the head since I pulled it a few days ago to get a good look at everything, and yes it was doing this before I pulled it and I already...

No it's got the manual decomp with blue button. Chain does race after I start it. Chain doesn't spin when pulling the rope. It dies when I try giving it any throttle. After looking into it more, I think it's a carb for a 350??? It might not be pumping enough fuel. Plug is bone dry when I pull it...

Oh and the fuel filter, fuel line, impulse line have all been replaced. I removed the igniter and cleaned the magnetic contacts. Air filter on/off does not make a difference. I took the muffler and head off and saw no scoring just very minor surface scratches which I believe to be ok?? I removed...

Actually since I plugged off that extra fuel connection on the carb, I no longer need to dump fuel directly thru intake or spark plug hole to get it to run. But I'll be messing with the saw some more. My girlfriend ordered this carb thinking it was the Zama carb, but I looked at it on Amazon and...

Ok thanks guys. I have not worked on many saws so I'm pretty retarded when it comes to this. So if this carb isn't the right one, but it bolted up just fine, is there something different in the carb that would make it not work for this saw? Dumb question but thanks guys.

Ok as a quick plug I used a piece of fuel hose, and threaded a screw into the end of it. Fired up on the 2nd pull, idled really high for about 15 seconds, then I gave it throttle and it died?

I recently got a husky 357xp, from the numbers I found on it I think it's early 2000s. Hasn't been ran in at least 3 or 4 yrs. Everything in the walbro carb was siezed so I bought a cheap carb to put on it. Anyways, the only way I can get it to start is by dumping fuel thru the spark plug hole...
