I brought the fuel tank inside by the fire, hopefully it will loosen up and go in, if that don’t work I’ll have to borrow her blow dryer.

Put it in the fire

They was a Japanese carb company that made a good copy of a Walbro SDC. Then Stihl bought Zama and moved manufacturing to China.


So..........................no for a number of years (Some late 10-series Macs and SXL-AO Homelites had OEM Zama carbs, and those worked fine).......................and now yes.

i have an OEM japan zama on an early 044. never rebuilt it, never have touched it, runs its ass off.
i have a couple china clones Dave got early on, one runs real good, the other is hard to tune. bunch of knock offs on briggs and kohlers, only one was NFG so far.

Hell yes it did, I have lots of important stuff to do on a daily basis, no time to work on saws!

Pivs of the Lego set?

It’s homemade logging trucks and loaders and the rich kids have Lincoln logs, not kindling to haul around like us poor kids.
