anyone else's thoughts?
I would just stick to OEM and get the 200x carb. At least you know what you will be getting. From the symtoms you have explained it sounds like the cheap carb is to blame for most of the problems. You should be able to use the jets that you have on the way in the OEM carb if necessary.

Yeah the chinese carbs are hit & miss. I had one that ran way too rich no matter what you did, had some that work great! At the prices you can get them for(some low as $20 free shipping) I think it's worth the risk. You have to put your original jets in them though, ones that come in them I don't think would run a weed eater!
