    The only part I had to transfer from the old carb to the new was the kill switch harness

    I warmed it up pretty good and it seems like it ok. It runs great actually. But I won’t declare victory until I’ve run it in the woods.

    I didn’t want to wait.

    Took this maple.
    Saw ran mint.
    Not a hint of bog or stutter.

    I did empty the tank. I thought that was a little quick. But I didn’t top it off after the test cuts either so I went out without a full tank.

    Any gaskets that need to be ordered with the carb?
