Wt 215 swap

And it’s a WT-215

I recommend ordering an original Walbro.
Last I ordered one, it was under $30 from Stihlership.
But…. Perhaps it’s like the price of beef now??

$40 on Amazon, free delivery in 2 days (on a Sunday). My dealer would not have it in stock, would take forever to get it, would charge full retail plus 10% plus shipping...

Looks like you all have it figured out, but here's a video I did on the swap for anyone interested, that may stumble upon this thread in the future.

I agree with purchasing a genuine walbro wt-215 I bought two recently for $38 each. Well worth the money not messing around with Chinese carbs. This is only one man's opinion of course.

I’ve gotta ask.. is this your vid ? Good vid any ways.

@Wonkydonkey thanks. Yeah I made it a while back. I was having trouble finding a comprehensive "all in one place" detailed thread or video on the swap. I figured there should be one. I'm sure there are others out there, I'm just not the best and finding them.

I didn’t really read your words before the vid… I have now, doh I see you say it’s your vid.

but as I said it’s a good vid.

it almost makes me go out and buy a saw and carb
just to mod it

i guess I have a bad case of cad
