Hi Guys-
This is my first post on the forum, but I've been lurking around this site for a while now and am really impressed by all the helpful knowledge that gets shared around here...
I have an 032 AV that wound up with a problem bogging down when hot. I took it to a local shop (that had a real good Stihl man, I thought) who installed a kit and could never really get it to perform properly when hot. It would die in the log and could not be adjusted out. He had installed a carburetor kit, but came to the conclusion that I needed a carb. According to the kit he installed, I would need an HU-51A, but he could not locate one. The saw sat for a while, I wound up buying a MS361, and that’s been several years ago. I’m feeling guilty about having the 032 (which was a really good saw) just sitting around, and am now looking for a carb to hopefully get it running again. I’m likewise having a problem locating a carb.
Can y'all tell me, perhaps, what the difference is between the HU-51A and the HU-51B? I understand that both were fitted to the 032 AV, but are they interchangeable?
Thanks, folks!
