You've had different results than me...I've never found that there was any performance difference between the the Tilly and the Bing on an 038 Mag...I sure like the $14 kit for the Tilly more than the $60 one for the Bing though!!!:msp_scared:

038 bing
Guess I just luck out but my kits are $10.00???? I have two spares, I keep hearing these nightmare kit costs but never see it. I like tilly's in general there the best for my Partners but the bing has way more rpm potential if you push your 038's like I used too. They also fire first pull hot or cold and keep running if you catch the choke fast enough!

Fill your hands, you SOB!
I've found the kits but they are wanting 40 bucks or more for them, which is a little ridiculous. They may be an excellent carb, but without good diaphragms they aren't worth their weight in scrap.
I got my Tilly HK for $20 and diaphragms for $7.50, so for a $27.50 investment I have a carb I can easily find parts for, and saved atleast $12.50 on the diaphragms alone for the Bing.
If I didn't plan on keeping and operating this saw I may have left the work to the new owner, but I'd rather be done with it because this saw is still in great shape and has excellent compression, many more years of runtime left on it. So another kit will be in order down the road.

Maybe what else I do once I get to working on the carb I will take pictures to compare the two, throttle bore, venturi and so on.
I believe the Bing carbs are similar to Mac carbs, they operated OK, but as far as common parts and being able to bring them back/keeping them in a functioning state they aren't worth the trouble and money.

038 and Bing
Hey just so you know, Bing carb kits are $9.99 at Baileys. Others similar, They may not be Stihl but they work the same, mines been in there 5 years. Mine was labeled as made in Germany on the bag.
Anyway sounds like you have it handled, Tilly or Bing your 038 is a great saw, very long life saws.

034/036 coil and maybe a carb
Looking for a coil for an 034/036, and possibly a carb. I have a few different stihl things I could trade.

What carb # does it take?

It has a Zama POS C3A right now. A tilly or walbro equivilent would be better. I really need the coil more than anything.

Also a clutch cover, condition is no matter, one from a 61, 266, 268 and 272 will do.
Also an air filter.
Green paper and 15 boxes full of chainsaws and parts to trade.

I believe so. Just the common coil used from 026 to 046 or something like that.

The 026 coil isn't the same as the 046 coil....

Thanks for the correction. I wasnt positive. At any rate, now Im about sure what I need is a carb. I swapped carbs from my 034 and it fixed the problem, so Im looking for a carb for 034/036.

Good point, Aaron. However I'm wondering if he's going to put on a shirt, and take the cigarette out of his mouth when the crew shows up to film his episode of "Hoarders"?

Oh man
...I don't watch much TV, had no idea there was such a show..I sincerely hope they don't find out about me.....because IT'S TRUE, THAT IS ALL VALUABLE STUFF!
...my fav is some oddball piece of machined metallic looking substance that I have NO IDEA whatsoever what it goes to, where it came from, or if it will ever have any practical use..but I do know that if I throw it out, within one week I will discover a need for that...whatever it was. Never fails.
