Which ported 50cc saw

[DSS]

I read page 1, and page 20. Did I miss anything? If so, could someone summarize the 18 pages in between (APA format please).

Absolutely nothing you haven't read before, if you been here more than a week.

Be the same thing next week, just a different saw/porter/cryfest/lovefest. You know.

Will a carb off a 359 work on my 346?The only numbers I could get from the guy that were on the carb are 175-145.

Yes that will work fine, its a direct bolt on.

Mount flange is a bit different but it will bolt right on and is a fantastic swap. Might i suggest the 359 boot is bigger if you want more airflow.

350 boot top 359 bottom

The entire 357/359 intake tract is the way to go. You want a Walbro carb if you can get one.

Does this swap work well with the 5cc smaller OE , or is it "too much" carb for the little guy ?

Thanks,but before I buy does everyone or most agree the 357/359 walbro carb is the way to go on a ported 346xp?

I'm running the 357 carb, boot and flange on my OE. Like Brad said, Works great!

Sounds good.I will have to give Scott(tree monkey) another call.Even if the gains are small it will be cool to have that setup.Now I will have to sell a new carb,coil and clutch cover for an NE346xp non CAT.

Does anyone know the Walbro HDA number for the carb I need.Are they the same for the 359 and 357xp?

YEP!!!! the number is...........2156!!! get a fast saw WoodyMan!!

 

[nmurph]

199...you can not find them new. You have to find someone who has swapped them out for the updated Zama C3 EL42.

HDA-199 is for unheated EPA versions - and yes, it is the same for both saws. HDA-198, -191 and -190 are the similar carbs for other versions, of which -191 is for the heated EPA (US) saws.
