The last Walbro carb I took of my latest 044 was a HD 17A

I know both of my 046's have 17a but not certain on my 044, now you have me wondering and I'll check tomorrow

Either carb will work, but some people prefer the Walbro.

Both my 044s came with, and still have ZAMA, with no problems, but all of my 046/460s have Walbro.

Just make sure that if your carb has a snorkel that you have the right carb plate for it (or you cover the hole with something), or change the carb cover.

I have not had issues with either make carb, and I like the way all my saws run!

My 044 has a zama carb. I'm pretty sure it's the original. I believe I'm the third owner. My 044 is also a very early 12mm saw.

I replace the snorkel on all those carb's with the regular cover

I just wish I could start and run these 044's

I have a nice test log (Hemlock) 22" dia to test in

I'm one of those guys that like's Walbro over Zama's
