Tillotson HT-12 or Walbro WG?

[ManiacalMark]

Just finally got my one ms880 together and I rebuilt the carb and have had it on and off a dozen times now. No matter how I set the fork it just dumps fuel into the crankcase before I can even get it to pop. 195psi on an 880 I’m getting tired of pulling it over haha. If anyone knows of a fix it would be appreciated or if I should just buy a WG-12.

I bought the Walbro for my 088 and it runs perfectly. Im sure the tillotson carb is fine but it was quicker to get the carb.

Well I found the root of my problem after messing with it for hours and pulling it over more than 100 times @ 192psi of compression. Flywheel magnet was just messed up enough that it wouldn’t fire. Swapped the flywheel and it fired on the 3rd pop. Now my arm feels like I tried pull starting a crf450…

Ive often thought that they should have come with a kick start adapter!

Now my only concern is if the poly flywheel is still available
