How to remove 441 carb with throttle cable?

There's your trophy?

You got it running. Now what? Any hack with a T-27 can do that. If it has an air leak you'll never know til you're scratching your head over a bogging saw in a 12" pine log.

I got nothing else. You can lead a horse to water.

The real bear in my book was reinstalling the manifold and thus getting both tubes and grommets attached inside the carb bracket. The two-string-pulling suggestion was a failure for me. My fingers and a few cuss words while working worked much better. The Stihl engineer that designed that assembly and the manager who approved it both needed their heads examined.

Man... if you can’t tell that a saw has a air leak by the saw not holding a tune or idling there is something wrong... especially when it tunes out at the factory spec. But yeah you are def right if it’s a mtronic it would be hard to tell if it had a leak. But I used a reg carb.


Ps I know I need a mityvac already.. and I literally went to harbor freight yesterday but you was right about the 8000 only being vacuum and not pressure.

I left the cylinder attached to the carb baffle. Made things a lot easier.

I feel the same way about running a build before you verify that it's leak free. Even though you're so full of threads and questions, you seem like the kind of guy that doesn't really learn until it costs you. "If it runs, it's done", right?

A good pair of small needle nose def helped out on the throttle cable.

Having never built one of these I was wondering what the squish was as well. Did you end up going gasket or no gasket?

That’s what this forum is for right? And I usually don’t even get answers on here usually it’s just reply’s like this lol.

You don't get answers because you don't listen to them unless it's what you want to hear. People that know quit wasting their time because you're going to do what you want and find out anyway. So why would they waste their time? Plus there's that ignorant racist thing.

No gasket, and no decomp, it has way more compression than my 046. The solder mic’d out to .023. That is one thing I def check before starting lol.

Not racist. Was just stating facts in the political section. Guess some liberals might find that offensive.

Alright just don’t be disrespectful to the people in the drive thru... be safe and don’t burn yourself.

You can bluff your way through vac tests with some air line, a couple of plastic fittings, a vac gauge and some kind of tubing clamp (small locking pliers). By sucking on the open end of the air line, you can pull 10 on the vac gauge, clamp it off and see if it holds.
Same sort of thing can be assembled from parts for pressure using a small pump meant for bicycle tyres or sports balls.
You can test for these things without a Mityvac- but the correct mityvac makes it a whole lot easier to do.

Aww man that’s a good work around for someone like cuinrearview that likes sucking on hoses! Now he will be headed to the shop to find the biggest radiator hose he can...

And you have to wonder why nobody bothers with constructive replies to your posts eh?

That was just a stab at cuinrearview.


That is pretty good advice and I would do it if I had all the stuff on hand but by the time I bought all that stuff i might as well get the mityvac. Not insulting u at all.
