Need to know carb model number to get a new one.Mine is worn down and all I can read is HS then the rest can`t be read,tillotsen carb.My serial number is missing to.Model is 185 but my Dad said 380 is the same.It was his saw and gave it to me before he passed away.
I used it twice once as a spare but found it to heavy for just cutting spruce and jackpine all day,then I used it 10 years ago to cut some white pine down and it worked great.
gonna keep this saw ,very sentimental.
any help would be great.
 
Are you just needing a HS Tilly carb kit for a rebuild? or are you wanting a whole new carb. i just picked up 5 HS complete carb kits for $9 apiece and Diaphragm kits only go for $5.

Both saws you listed use the same carb kit. RK-23HS

wow. I just bought a couple off the net for 3 bucks shipped for each complete kit....Could have got the gasket kit & diaphram for 2 bucks.... I got a couple HT carb kits for 6 bucks too. They are aftermarket though, but seem to work well. Good quality for aftermarket.

Mine was original HS, HT, Tilly and original Walbro kits for my 5000's. Havent tried the aftermarket stuff, for a few bucks extra in a $500-$1200 saw, why not, like paying a little extra for better oil imo. just cheap insurance.
I seen them HS carb kits for .99 cents with $2.07 shipping each, but i was sort of scared of the aftermarket stuff.
