ms200t replacement carb

[spudulike]

You either fit another MS200T carb as a direct replacement, fit an 020T carb - you will lose a little pickup but almost not noticeable - you will also need the 020T rubber grommet side plate where the adjuster screws are accessed - or you can get a grommet with all three holes.

 

Other than that, the carb has three faults that I know of that can cause some pretty weird idle issues - took me a long while to get fixes in place!

And need to block off the hole that goes into the air filter.

Yeah or fit the 020T backplate:thumbup:

 

Carb issues are the achilles heel of these saws - apart from this, they are a damn good saw.

Another problem that often gets confused with a bad carb is the roller crankcase bearings getting side slop which takes out the seals .I've rebearinged three so far .
