Installation notes
Disconnect the fuel line and remove the air filter cover. Detach the throttle and choke connections from the old carburetor and unbolt it from the intake. Clean the mating surface thoroughly.

After starting, let the engine warm up before fine-tuning the mixture and idle speed.
Common questions
Q: Will this WT-875 carburetor fit my Poulan Pro BVM200VS and replace the original 545081831 carb?
Yes, this carburetor is listed as compatible with the Poulan Pro BVM200VS and replaces OEM part number 545081831, including WT-875A versions. It is also made for related models like BVM200C, GBV325, P325, and Craftsman 358794650, but it’s still smart to match your engine model and old carb number before installation.
Q: I have a Craftsman 358794650 blower that surges at idle and dies when I hit the throttle. Would replacing it with this WT-875 carb help?
Those symptoms are very common when the original carburetor has clogged internal passages, hardened diaphragms, or fuel metering issues, so replacing it with the correct WT-875 style carb can often solve the problem. Before installing the new carb, clean or replace the fuel filter, inspect the fuel lines, and use fresh mixed fuel so the new carb doesn’t develop the same issues.
Q: Do I need to adjust anything when installing this WT-875 carburetor on a Poulan Pro GBV325 or P325?
After installation, check that the throttle linkage and fuel lines are routed exactly like the original carb and make sure the mounting gasket seals properly. Once the engine starts, you may need a minor idle adjustment and should let it warm up fully before making any fine tuning decisions.
