MS 361 Impulse Line

[itcoffee88]

I've got an old MS 361 that I am trying to repair, and I have run into a bit of trouble. The impulse line is connected to the crankcase, but I don't see where to connect it behind the carb. I have pulled it through it's housing, but I am not sure what to do with it now...am I missing a grommet?

It does not come through the hole. To the right behind the hole is a nipple it goes on I believe.

Excellent. I had wondered if that's where it connects, but it didn't make sense to me! Thank you.

I was told when this happened to mine to use a new impulse hose because the av mounts are rather soft on that model saw and the brittle hoses pull off easily..I would try to use a Stihl line rather than aftermarket for this...

okay, then what passes through the hole below the carb and beside the fuel feed line?

Nothing. It’s where most other Stihl impulse hoses are but the 361 doesn’t use it

I don't understand how this works. I (think) I found a little nipple on the back carb mounting plastic but it doesn't connect to the rubber manifold. How would it work if it doesn't connect to anything?
