WJ, HDA, WT and HD are probably the most common.

RK-23HS, K10-WJ, K10-HD, K10 + K20-WAT, RB-31 + 36, and RB-66 are what I usually stock.

I order a lot of them here: https://www.mfgsupply.com/

The last carb kit I bought was supplied from a USA shop. Baloney. Dang thing did not even fit my Stihl 034 as advertised. Lord knows where it came from or who made it -- probably China. It's a POJ.

What about the aftermarket kits on ebay. They any good? Or would you say stick to oem.

I buy em 2,3 or 4 at a time and toss the extras in the drawer, after awhile you'll have a pretty good stash that'll surely come in handy. I get them from carb tech if I have a few days to wait, never had an issue with their kits and they're cheap. Otherwise I'll source single kits locally for rush jobs that I don't have in stock.

Stick with OEM. They aren’t that much more $ anyway.

I usually find OEM pretty cheap on ebay. I always buy at least 2 when I order or more if I know that's a kit I'll be needing a lot of. All the spare part get saved in a drawer and have come in handy a few times.

What's a carb kit ?!

Carbs have something to do with food, don't know what though.

Throughout my life I haven't purchased more than 3-4 carb kits, I just get one as the need arises.

Ebay is cheap but the shipping is more then the kit to get across the river.

The more carbs you eat, the fatter you get.

No shelf queens here!
They get as much work as I have time.

Grabbed a kit today after work. Just shy of 15 dollars. Thats why i asked about aftermarket. They are getting expensive.

I've used Stens brand before which aren't terrible.
Some after market kits are ok,but thats why reading through the reviews is important.

I know on pwc engines with diaphragm carbs its only OEM for me. Went down the aftermarket kit hole a few times. Caused myself more problems then solved. Saw carbs may be more forgiving
