The older Zamas made in Japan were good carbs. I just figured out my 1996 020T had a Zama C1Q-S16,A . The 020AV from 1980s early90s had a Walbro. But the old 020AV was a different saw design altogether from the newer 020T. So stick with this Zama to fit the MS200T. Willard.

Just dug out my first MS200's owners manual dated 2000-01 and on page 5 it says some MS200 models had the screw type fuel/oil caps. Mine had the flip caps and flush slotted airfilter cover knob. I sold this saw and my old 020 [1996] to a tree service buddy in the big city. Just some info that...

Gotcha, good point. I can't remember what my newest 020 had for a carb. Our local Stihl dealers would have all the answers. Some saw models in the same year may have 3 different models of carbs, depending on the production run. Willard.

Yes they were Walbros Kevin. As far back as I remember the 020s had Walbros since the late 1980s , the earlier models may have had them too. 020 introduced in 1971. Willard.

I love my 200 too, will probably buy another soon. The last 020 I had looked identical to the MS200 except it didn't have flip caps and ran a little slower. Willard.

I wished I kept my old 020s, I never had a problem with them maybe their carbs might do better on the 200. But I still think there is a foaming issue with vibration in the fuel tank. Maybe I should try a clear fuel line on the 200 to see if there is air bubbles at WOT. Willard

they still do it when new, the 1st 200 demo I tried 8-9 yrs ago ran like a PoS, the 2 I bought later ran the same brand new, dealer just kept changing the carbs while on warranty. Then you find a good carb and it can go for yrs. Willard.

No effect -The 200's av only isolates the handles and carb only, the fuel tank is solid with the engine. Huskies tank carb etc are isolated= best setup. Willard

I did a little experiment this morning with my erratic lean running MS200. From what I learned 27 yrs ago when I built my Yamaha YZ bikesaw, I noticed lots of air bubbles flowing into the bikesaw's carb through its clear fuel line. I stuffed the bikesaw's fuel tank with copper pot scrubbers...

This carb issue is not a new problem. When the MS200 came out 9 yrs ago the Stihl rep loaned me a demo. The thing wouldn't idle ,dieing out off idle. So I bought one thinking another one wouldn't have the same problem. Not. The dealer ended up changing the carb. Always ran Stihl Ultra syn. mix...

Matter of fact my 200 is acting up too at the moment. Its idles fine when starting from cold but when working up in the tree its idling at 5000 rpm, still cuts like crazy still. Little Husky 338XPT is working fine but still has a long way to go before max breakin power. Willard.
