Was having problems with my Stihl blower and it needed a carb rebuild. I know the guy who owns the dealership where I bought it so I asked him about getting a rebuild kit.
He said forget it, they don't do that anymore. Just put a new carb on it. Sent me a link. To eBay!
So I order what I thought was a generic Chinese knockoff carb for $15.

Put on new carb, filled gas, pulled 3 times, machine never has run this good before. Draw your own conclusions.
There's good Chinese parts and bad Chinese parts like everything else.
