I use a #2 pencil with eraser on top to put in my screens in it doesn't distort them like a screwdriver I flare them out between my fingers then just push it in thanks for your videos I enjoy them

[@Smittyschainsaws]

I smart person would keep a pencil lying around for such an occasion. I myself am not such a smart person!

[@JandSChainsaw]

I hate those little springs lol

[@Smittyschainsaws]

You and me both!

[@ButlerOutdoorsCanada]

That's an excellent idea using the scotch Brite pads!!

[@Smittyschainsaws]

Whatever works!

[@mrj7872]

Try a number two pencil eraser that’s new or used both work to push that screen in

I have not found that removal of the screen to be necessary, it can be cleaned with solvent spray and light air pressure, you can see thru the passage leading into the metering side to verify that it is clear. If the screen is damaged or otherwise blocked such that it cannot be cleaned then of course replacement is needed. When replacing screen, a pencil with a new squared eraser works well, the right size and easy to handle too to set the screen. If you coat the gaskets with vaseline on reassembly you'll find they will not stick to the metal, the next time you disassemble it will be smooth and easy.

Smitty: any idea where I can get an HS 122A or 169A or a 228A?

[@Smittyschainsaws]

Maybe eBay

[@garymcmullin2292]

if you are still looking the 228 can be bought direct from Tillotson in Ireland, under $90 US and shipping is $17.54 flat rate.

[@Whatsupwithme]

Those govenor plugs can be hard to get out. What do you use for replacement fuel lines for the 76/130 saws cant seem to find an affodable option .

[@Smittyschainsaws]

I have rolls of different sizes so I can just grab what I need. Without doing it again I would be just guessing on the exact size.

[@crazyfeller5704]

That was a good video. Easy to see everything, up close and detailed. Well done! Wondering if or how much the 130 changes when you get the new carb on it.

[@Smittyschainsaws]

Only one way to find out!
