Hey everyone
It looks like I need to replace the carb on my very old 025. It has the Walbro 283B carb on it which is no longer avalible. Stihl does have a replacement # 1123 120 0605 for sale. I think the replacement may be a Walbro 215 which is a different animal than my original carb. Will the replacement carb work as good and smooth as the original has all these years? The original has a mid rpm jet ?? and the replacement I do not know? By the way this saw has no primer pump or tube from the underside of handle to bottom of crank?? sorry I don't know the right terminology. I have the carb off and it does have a port under the intake matching up with a port on the cylinder intake. Any takers on this thoroughly confusing post?
 
One turn out then on both high and low to start off? I'm about 1000' above sea level?
Oh, and thanks.
