I have noticed that some of you AS members are having some problems with your carburetors on the 357 & 359 Husqvarna Chainsaws. I think some of the problems can be attributed to incorrect gaskets and diaphram or incorrect installation of the gaskets and diaphram. I have attached a partial parts breakdown of the carburetor showing the correct gaskets and diaphram also the correct installation of the gaskets and diaphram. I have had a few DIY's bring their saws in after installing a carb kit (purchased elsewhere) and this was the problem 100% of the time, a simple quick fix. This information applies to all carburetors with the spacer block for filtered compensated carburetors.
I hope this information helps some of you, before you get frustrated with your saw.

I have the exact same parts break-down and followed it to the letter and still had trouble with the EPA carb HDA 199, installed a HDA 159 carb with excellent results. Kit was purchsed from Husqvarna dealer as well. Some carbs are still the problem. Thanks for the info though.
