G'day Norm and AVB,

I picked up another 2 of these old Stihl FS 80 trimmers ,the free one I got today I've fitted a Victa module and fitted a primer
from another trimmer ,it now runs but needs a carby and I see you can't get parts now so you have to convert the carby to
a later model carby but have seen a new later model carby for $18 so may try that.

Below are the conversion mods required .

By the way ,the 5 Hp Honda motor above runs like new now just needed a carby clean and tapped out the spark plug thread.

Cheers
Max.
