walbro carb on craftsman 32cc trimmer

[metz12]

Going by the photos can't see any reason why after a good clean up and a rebuild kit that it wouldn't work fine, had many like that..!

i think i will get a new carb for the trimmer i'm trying to fix now. then i will get a rebuild kit for this carb and put it on the other trimmer to see if i can get that one going! where would you get a rebuild kit from? on sears parts it is more expensive then a new carb:laughing:

Let me see if I have one on hand, I'll let you have it at my cost plus shipping{@$2}

First of all, have a little patience. You've been around long enough to know that we're not sitting around waiting for someone to ask a question. Your carb is corroded to the point that replacing over rebuilding is the best way to go. You might get lucky with a rebuild kit, or you could end up paying for a rebuild kit and a new carb.

I had problems with my carb and was sort of getting frustrated taking it apart a few times and going over it with a fine tooth comb and the same problem.I always figured that if soneone made it someone can fix it. I guess it wasn't me. I purchased a new carb and 2 pulls and its running once again. Who knows what the previous owner did to it like cranking in the adjustment screws and damaging the seats which you really can't see.Best of luck and you will get it running.

Welcome Owl.
If you look at the left hand side of the green dividing line you will see a date in white letters.
That is the date the post was sent ( Forum time ).
Thus you have just answered a post from August 2013.
No crime in dong that but most likely the original poster has fixed the trimmer by now.
Of course it would have been nice for him to tell us that so the thread could then be closed but that seems the way of the world now days.
