Ref the Walbro HD12, I assume we are talking about a genuine Walbro, not a cheap chicom special.

Yeah it’s me it’s too freaking dark outside and p**ing with rain had too go back
To the old utility room and get a rollicking for leaving oil on the dryer

Filter pic? Asking for a friend.

Interested in hearing any carb swaps, and boot swaps that have been done on these. I have a setup here I'm gonna try.

I’ve seen HL360 put on them. They’re finicky to tune to idle if they will at all

Here’s the filter

Thank you sir.

Small filter for such a big saw.

 

[ajschainsaws]

Thank you sir.

No problem

We throw them away. They don’t need a stinking filter[emoji51]

 

[RI Chevy]

Lol. They are overrated.

 

[mettee]

All that time and work that goes into porting these, no way I'd run without a filter

 

[huskyboy]

Funny the dolmar filter is half the size of the one on a 661 but it works better

Horribly small. The filter setup is the only thing I don't like about the saw but I'll be taking care of that issue soon

Go on....

 

[T.Roller]

Go on....

I'm gonna try a few different elbows with the carb setup I'll be trying. If I find one I like then I'll get a velocity stack made for it.

Whats all this 7900p45 business? I thought the 7900 was the old model and the 7910 was the new one? Also that filter is tiny unless the whole underside is all filter area? Whats the deal with the whole saw tell me more please.
