MS361 carb gasket?

[Mountainman]

Getting ready to pull the carb on an MS361 to address the limiters, but I'm having a hard time finding a replacement carb gasket online. Would it be worth a try to just reuse the old gasket, or should I contact the saw shop? I just hate to nickel and dime them. Thanks.

If the old gasket comes off cleanly, there is no reason not to reuse it. If you notice the saw hunting or dying or otherwise misbehaving and showing signs of running lean, stop and replace the gasket. If it tears coming off, obviously replace it. If you're planning on keeping the saw for a few years and are into stripping and cleaning, get a spare gasket or two and keep it in your toolbox.
