Walbro Adjustment Tool

[ChickenPappy]

I hope someone can help. I just replaced a Walbro on a Husqvarna Rancher 460 chainsaw. It is definitely a Walbro carburetor. My problem is that the hi/lo adjustment jets have changed. The adjustment end has splines on it. My 21 tooth adjustment tool is to small it will not fit or slide onto the adjustment screw. Is there an adjustment tool that works for this carb?
The saw starts right up with the new carb straight out of the box it just idles a tad to fast. The idle adjustment screw is adjusted as far as it can be. HELP!

Check out ebay, you can buy a complete set of adjustment screwdrivers for just a few bucks

Sounds like the newer 5mm spline one. Husky dealer only item.

Here is my 5mm new spline next to a 21 spline afm has.

Not made by aftermarket yet.

But here is a work around Mitch shared with us years back on the 585. Use a pacman epa tool that is afm one.

Sad thing they show them everywhere online like that. Never had one order go through. So if someone has luck with that same ole link like the many others, update us.

Cheaper and normal price. https://www.rcpw.com/husqvarna-598846901-carb-tool-20-tooth-5mm/

So went a different route.

I dont recall the time frame allowed anymore as this was all back when 585 came out. But the husky dealer said he was only allowed 4 for his uses and couldnt re-order any for a certain amount of time.

Cant recall that part anymore. How many months to wait etc.

That’s the one I need. Thank you for the information.

I’m going to try the Pac Man trick.

Try using one of these:


Just push it down over the splines and turn.

This is an idea, I’ll try it and let you know how it turns out. Thanks
