What would be the best adjustable carb that bolts into this one if I want to try practicing some porting and opening the muffler a little bit? Surely the fixed setting won't work for that?
I installed the same carb you have and I couldn't get mine to start at all. I replaced the spark plug, carb, air cleaner, fuel filter and fuel line. It doesn't even try to start. What else can I try?
Hipa, send me one and I'll submit a review. A buddy gave me his stihl ms170. He barely used it but managed to mess up his carburetor according to a technician he took it too.
Dobrý deň.dava sa tesnenie na karburátor z oboch stran alebo len z jednej strany Co môže byť mam tiež stihl ms170 anejde vôbec naštartovať ak. Je studená dám dole sviečku,dám kus paliva dám naspäť sviečku.naskoci za studena potom už nič. Stále nenaskoči.
@@JKSawShop I’m really starting to like sthil less and less. The 025 had a plate that sealed to that rubber and the gasket to the carb witch seemed a little better then directly to that rubber.
You are entitled to your opinion on them, I haven’t had any problems with their carbs though. The MS 170 is designed to be thrown away and not repaired.
Any good small engine repair technician should be able to work on any carburetor. If not, find another shop. Only exception is if it's still under warranty, in the case, best to stick with Stihl parts.
Bless you JK for sharing your life and wisdom with us:)
This Video is great! Saved me a trip to the shop.
No problem, thank you for watching
Thanks for this couldn't remember where the gasket went, appreciate the video
Not a problem glad it helped.
How much for a carburetor? I can only find kits @JKSawShop
Thanks for the video, i messed up my kill switch when I put mine back together and your video showed me what I did wrong
No problem, I’m glad you got her going now.
Wow, pretty easy replacement!😁
It didn’t take long at all.
Thank you and I did purchase a carburetor from Hipa…😊
This one done very well.
Really nice, informative vid, thanks so much.
Not a problem

Walbro WT-325A
Zama C1Q S43B
Any adjustment needed after the carb swap or good to go after install?
Just have to drill a hole for the adjusters, and swap the plate on the metering diaphragm from the original one.
Good info
Thank you

I’d looked at crank seals
Hey, I want to ask if an adjustable carb for MS 210, MS 230, MS 250 will fit MS180?
It should, you may have to do a small adjustment on the throttle linkage side.
@@JKSawShop thanks
So you like those carbs pretty good
I’ve not had the first problem with them

This one work without any issue. 170/180 I think had carb issues from stock.
Mine won’t idle debating on a adjuster carburetor
I think it would be a nice upgrade

Untuk ms 170 susah hidup, semacam bahan bakar telat naik
Is there no gasket behind the carb only the rubber .??? Hipa has been great so far. .!!!
Seals directly to the intake boot, the 2 carbs I have gotten have been awesome

@@ScrewdriverTUNING I had a couple of 025 come in
@@JKSawShop o yea that’s cool. Chippy needs a 025 parts saw if one becomes parts. !!
@@JKSawShop what are you working on them .??
Which carb is zama or other?
It appears to be of Zama style
Ako sa štartuje celkom dole páčku alebo nie
Áno, s pákou úplne nadol
@@JKSawShop ďakujem za odpoveď
How much still Ms 170
They don’t make a 170 anymore I think it is now a 171. They are around $200 USD
They are still available new here, maybe old stock? The newest one is MS172 I think
@@MF175mp I have not got my hands on a 172 yet
I don't like Hipa carburetor.I will always use stihl original carburetor.If the stihl dealer saws anytime this carburetor they won't able to fix it

HIPa gave me the carb to use, and give them feedback on it.
I have an aftermarket similar to HiPa, I needed an adjustable carb after doing a muffler mod. It's a nice improvement.
@@grattonland It's hard to do any mods without being able to adjust the carb. 017,018, and I think 021 carb will go into a 170.
Thanks for the sub and I gave you one back 👍
Not a problem, you are welcome.
