Exceptional video. In the past I had a much more difficult time removing the carburetor, but after watching your video it was easy. Your experience really shows. Thanks.
Thank you very much, I've had people poi t out previously that my videos don't do the small engine shops justice cause they show how long it actually takes to do these repairs
Awesome video. Somewhere over the years I’ve owned this or maybe straight out the gate because my dealer is great I got the updated carb and EPA stuff was edited. Seeing the difference was helpful. Just going through some of the equipment and haven’t used my 357xp in years. Started right up and ran a full day no problem. Thank you for making quality content.
Very detailed video. I'm working on my dad's 359. Carburetor problems. Never worked on this particular model before and your video was very helpful. I've tuned and tuned the carb and it just won't do right. Can't get it to idle right and at time bogs on the top end no matter how I tune it. And yes, the arrestor screen is good. Anyway, I'm gonna take the carb apart and clean it. If that doesn't work then I'll just replace the carb. I'm sure the carb kit costs more than what I can get a new carb for. Good video though.
Thanks for sharing and demonstrating how to replace the carb. Also showing the difference between the old and new versions of the carb. I just picked up a 359 off Craigslist for $80 the guy just put a new side cover spark plug and updated carb on it but it will not start. It’s got plenty of compression and looks to have been used very little. Any way your video will surly help me on my adventure! Man you work quick on them things! You could probably do one in the dark or very limited light if you had too!
Mine has the old style i just cleaned it today and it was spotless.Acted like it was hung open..Plug cover in gas and spitn fuel out muffler..Just out of no where..Cleaned it best i could ..Then i pushed the trigger slider off in handle..Choke wouldnt lock out like it should..I missed a bolt hole on gasket.lol..It popped right off as always..Say i need to replace carb..Good how to video..❤
Sure you explained it but I have little experience and have difficulty understanding English. Why did you replace the carburetor? Thanks if you help me understand.
Great video, I have one question though. If previously I had the WALBRO carburetor on, can i replace it with this ZAMA new one and they will be compatible?
@@tomljungman2545 stens sells both oem and Chinese aftermarket carbs, I've had decent luck with there aftermarket stuff, though they don't seem to run quite the same as oem
@@Coakleyfixedit207 Ok, then I was wrong about around 5-6 these types of carbs that I fixed that way... That black plastic part has vents that mess up and if you put vent holes in the lid above diaphragm it literally does something ;) But hey, don't have to believe me, if you get a chance try it once..
@vjeko8690 it's a check valve inside the carb body that goes bad, the vents in the lif and black spacer are so the diaphragm can move freely, I'd more likely say the carbs you fixed just needed kits. But hey not throwing shade your way maybe I didn't explain the issue these carbs have deep enough

@audis6m ohhh gotcha musta been a typo on your original comment, I've done hundreds of these and never had to replace the flange on a 357/359. On the smaller 300 series (350, 345, 346xp etc) i have run Into needing a different style because of the adjustment screws. It's important to keep in mind these companies sell different variations of the same model to different regions. California is a good example of this
Would you think changing the carb on my 357 xp would resolve it bogging and stalling while idling. I've done everything else to it except replacing the carb.
@scottseeley4799 %100 other then fuel lines and intake boot that would be my 1st guess, if it's an early version with the auto decompression that could be leaking

Excellent production and I like your voice “dubbing” over (I assume). Best job ever.
Awesome, straight forward video, thank you Sir 😉
Just had to do this swap on my 353. The throttle linkage was the bugger. Thanks
Great video, I am replacing the carb on a 353!!👍
Sure you explained it but I have little experience and have difficulty understanding English. Why did you replace the carburetor? Thanks if you help me understand.
That has helped me with my new to me 357 thanks.
Great demonstration. thanks!!
Great video. Thank you. I just bought an old 359 and your video was helpful. Do you still work on saws?
4 days a week all day
Great how to video. Appreciate your time.
Thanks!
Great video, I have one question though. If previously I had the WALBRO carburetor on, can i replace it with this ZAMA new one and they will be compatible?
yes they used both rbs on these depending on the model year walbro is better in my opinion but both fit just fine
Thanks!❤
Awesome stuff!! You gotta do some videos on Stihl now.
I need to get my hands on more stihls, im going to start doing entire series on specific models but can only do models I've got 😆
Is this the zama C3-EL42 . You are putting on.
Yes, oem only the Chinese ones are not the same or as good
@@Coakleyfixedit207 100% china carb no good . Any suggestions where to buy. Was going to look on Amazon.
Amazon will work as Long as it's guaranteed oem or a local husqvarna dealer can order it but it'll be around $100

I don't have a link but the part number is 505203002
@@Coakleyfixedit207 Thanks!!
Anytime!
Way to fix that old type carb is to drill a vent hole (or two) in the top lid that is held by 4 screws. Carb rebuild kit and it works as good as new.
Uhhh that would literally do nothing as it has nothing to do with the issue but thanks for watching and the comment

Hi when you replace walbro carb with zama you dont need diferent flange for it part number RS727859 ?
Nope, I have no idea what that part number is, it's definitely not a husqvarna number
