husky 357xp problem

[wills-mill]

My 2006 357xp started playing up at about 6 months old, after trying carb diaphragm kits, filters and breathers it still wasn't good and so it sat on the shelf for 18 months.

 

One of the local Husky agents (Ray Foster, Turners Hill, W Sussex) suggested a carb change to the older 262xp carb specification and it's been brilliant ever since.

 

Their opinion (if I remember) was that the 357 carb wears out if its limited adjustment range and is essentially scrap after a year, so try the older (pre-emissions reg) carb if there are ongoing problems....
