G'day all, can anyone steer me in the right direction as to where I can get a rebuild kit for a Walbro WS-11 carby please. Australia hopefully, but international will be considered.
Cheers

Could try Friday Parts, NAPA or any other aftermarket source. Here is what I found. Not sure if they have exactly what you need. Worth checking.

First I had to look up the carburetor on Walbro site to get the repair kit PN. Then it was just a matter telling Google that I was looking for that kit in Australia and verifying the results.

Now you know why I am got good at securing parts. It is like the Hustler Super Z idler arm that they want $140 for but I got one coming from a different OEM that used the same idler arm for less then $93. Sometimes research is the key part of securing parts. Now the problem is replacing the pivot bolt that is welded in place in a tight area and welding in a longer bolt so I can have a longer un-threaded section. The current threaded section is what destroyed the current idler arm.

In Australia shipping is ridiculously high, even shipping from the US to Australia is very high.

Or as in the movie here when he was confronted by a mugger. "That ain't a knife...THIS is a knife". The mugger just had a little pocket knife.
 
Just so you know Oldfart, Startech is THE OG when it comes to parts and bulletins. The E.F. Hutton (if you remember that commercial)so to speak of the board.

And I try to know my stuff as I am the only here in my shop.

Just filled out rather stupid Medicare questionnaire. It wanted to knew if I had any stress in the last 90 days. Oh that one is beauty. It is the start of the season and lots of vendor problems. Of course I am pissed off about the stupidity of the vendors on their parts.
