Stihl MM55 Tiller Carb Replacement - Don't Buy Junk on Amazon

[@tracyhastings2941]

It works great!

I just replaced the carb on my Stihl 85c leaf blower with a $23 CAD amazon carburetor and it fired right up. Of course it needed some tweaks and adjustments, but overall runs great! I've bought about 10 amazon carburetors for several Stihl machines, MTD lawn mowers, Ryobi trimmers, etc. over the summer and haven't had an issue yet. Maybe it's something you're doing wrong?

@@thecanadiangrill1715 could be. I tend to buy the cheapest one sometimes. I also think is wasn't the correct one too as it just didn't fit right. I also buy a ton of parts from Amazon, which is why I was careful to specify "junk" not just Amazon. As for my Stihl equipment, other than primer bulbs this is the only one I have issues with. Now that I can get ethanol free gas, I don't expect to have any more issues

@@thecanadiangrill1715 when I bought that carb, I think it was less than $20 and has no name or p/n on it.

I did the same thing with a Stihl fs45 weed trimmer and it ran great for a year and now it's dead and you can't tune it at all.

If you can, find a Stihl carb and let me know if it worked.
