Stihl FS65av brush cutter/trimmer IPL

Postby JonCraig » Sun Jul 05, 2015 5:28 pm

Google has been fruitless. Anyone happen to have an IPL for an FS65av circa 1988? Trying to find the bracket that holds the throttle cable in place next to the carb.

Thanks in advance!

Not shown or listed in the IPL for either the FS65AVE OR FS65AVRE. Being a late 80's unit your probably SOL on getting a new part anyway.

Thanks for looking. Can I press my luck and ask: How 'bout a part # for a carb kit? Thanks!

If it has the Walbro WT-38B it is the K10-WAT for full kit or D10-WAT for GND kit. The other carburetor I don't have info it as make and model.

Hi John

When it comes to carb kits for any of this small equipment, your best bet is to look up the carburetor model and type and get an OEM or aftermarket kit for the carburetor. The Stens catalog doesn't actually list the FS-65 but says that both the Stihl FS-55 and the FS-75 use Stens part # 615-086 or 615-108 depending if you want a complete rebuild kit or just the gaskets and diaphragms respectively. 615-086 = Zama RB-66 and 615-108 = Zama GND-28. Hope this points you in the right direction,

I own a working fs 66 and will send you my manual in PDF format, if you like. It's from the same era.
