I have a shindaiwa 488 with a fixed jet carb. I want to mod this saw and need an adjustable carb. I'm too cheap to buy a new one from a dealer. Can someone tell me what model adjustable carb fits it and what other saws they are used on? Thanks
 
Bet you could use the SEARCH button and find it. I am pretty sure I posted it at least once before.
 
Moe.............I did a little digging. I believe the carb you want is a Walbro HDA-79-1.

This is the carb I believe I used on the 488 that I had.

Make sure that this carb is Shindaiwa 488 specific as this carb was prolly used on several other saws.

I have pretty savvy Shindaiwa dealer that I deal with. He took the time to look up the carb from another parts source and saved me $30 to $40 dollars!
