Do you have to tune this carb or is it ready to be used as is?

In my case I did not. Well just a little. Idle was a tad hi so turned the idle screw back.

Seller told me the same. You might have better lick though my hassle was resolved quickly.

It had to be tuned, and it comes with the plastic caps for the tuning screws. I found tuning instructions online. Worked great

I had to tinker with it. The white and red plastic plugs that cover the two jet scres are not attached and were not easily put on. No instructions came with it.....and really should. The idle screw needed to be turned out. It's running well now. The old carb succumbed to the ethanol rust. Learned my lesson on letting any gas wit in it over winter.

Let me know.......My ground is still frozen so I haven't used it yet. Orange County, NY

As far as I know all you need to do is make sure you either run the engine so the 20% is all used up from the lines and the tank or just drain it all. Also ensure you clean out your air filter and reoil it. Set the carb to factory (because the change in percentage will throw it off the tune) and return the engine. Other than that you should be good l.

Its a definate maybe. There are more things that I would need to know before anyone can answer that question. Although this might be a little over kill given that you are only going to need 2 of them instead of 4. It's nice to have for if your going to use it on other bikes as well. Generally though if it is a dual carb only one of them is adjustable in which case you can tune by sound. I have seen a few that both are tunable but not extremely often. If you can get me more info on the bike I can give you a more direct answer(year make and model would be very helpful) but in more cases than not yes this will work for you.

Really a turn key job as far as starting it up. Only thing that can be adjusted is idle speed. Started right up and ran great. For my application I needed to make some threads in 2 holes on the carb. No problem for me but maybe some people. 6-32 threads if I remember correctly.

No tuning required, unless you also change the pipes. Also the same filter will not affect the performance.

To the best of my knowledge the carb setup is the same on this line of Briggs engine. FYI if you purchase this carb do yourself a favor by attaching the throttle cable prior to installing the carb on the engine. If you don't you will buggar up the cable assembly.

I think that since it operates on 10m and 12m, without a tuner, it should "tune up" with a tuner...........may ask the dealer for sure

Leanne, Thanks for your interest. I have not adjusted the carb for a while. I have used it to cut wood until quite recently, just became tired of all the annoyances that go along with this saw. I paid as much for a 40 year-old used saw as I paid new for the Poulan so I guess the lesson is you get what you pay for.Karl

NO ! Look for which carb. you have or look for s repair diagram. the carb. number will be stamped somewhere on the carb. it's self. you may have to tear it down a littler to find it.

Mine was already tuned. Aside from maybe a minor adjustment to tuning it's ready to go.

If MAY work, but it is not designed for that engine. The adjustments are there for a purpose. You may not get satisfactory results when substituting carbs

Where are you located? warm or cold place? Do you have any non-OEM parts like a new air element? These carbs ship preset for the gy6's...in any case, they are also pretty cheap so it could be they are defective upon shipment too. I ended up returning mine for a slight better quality one ($40) which worked well. Good luck!

IT WILL fit and run motor BUT you have to prime stupid carb each time you let motor set for more than few minutes off. don't know why it won't keep itself primed. It's real pain to have to pour gas into it each time go use machine.

You can make it work but you'd have to jet it and have a full exhaust to make it run right. Youre better off getting a hi flow drop in with a modified airbox lid(remove it)and do the same mods. It'll be more reliable and the performance gain will be the same. Coincidentally, you can't remove the lid without re-jetting your carbs for the extra flow.

Yes, this will work. Carb is easy to tune also. Cold start is great but I also had a Holley street avenger that I felt had better performance. The Holley didn't cold start great however

The carbs will work but they do need to be jetted. They are jetted far too lean even for a stock motor. Some carbs also have bad threads from the factory so you should disassemble and inspect before you install

Yes that should be the same carb. I also have a Tecumesh 10HP engine. That carb has been fantastic.
