About this kit

These little Stihl blowers are almost impossible to kill, but their carburetor eventually stops holding a mixture. Ours replaces Stihl 4229 120 0606 and the Zama C1Q-S64 and C1Q-S68 family, and it comes with a full fuel line kit plus a spare black line for the return.

One thing matters more than anything else here: this carb uses a rod-type throttle linkage. Look at your throttle arm before ordering. If a cable runs to the carburetor, this is not your part; if it is a stiff rod, you are good to go.
