    Original Part Number and Type
    2318765AR
    2318765
    Walbro WT-869
    WT-869A \/ WT-869B version

    The WT-869A designation appears in the Oleo-Mac catalog, while in newer original Emak parts data 2318765AR is also called WT-869B. Therefore, when choosing a part it is most important to follow the original part number 2318765AR.

    Important Regarding Sparta 44

    This carburetor fits the Oleo-Mac Sparta 44 FE, but it is not universal for all Sparta 44 brushcutters.

    The standard Sparta 44 version's parts catalog uses the 2318735CR \/ WT-870B carburetor, while the Sparta 44 FE uses 2318765AR \/ WT-869. Therefore if the brushcutter is labeled only „Sparta 44“, you should check the old carburetor before purchasing. If it is marked 2318735CR or WT-870, a different version is needed.

    When installing

    Before replacing the carburetor it's worth checking the intake connector, gaskets, fuel hoses, fuel filter and tank breather. Leaks or poor fuel delivery can cause symptoms very similar to a failed carburetor.

    After installation check that the throttle moves freely and the choke operates properly. Before running under full load the carburetor should be adjusted according to the engine's requirements.
