    I live in Mombasa, Kenya and have a Stihl FS 86 strimmer/brushcutter and am told that the diaphragm in the carburettor has gone and needs replacing. When I go to the Stihl website I can't find the part number (probably I am being thick!) so can't order a new one.
    Can anyone give me any help and advice on where I can order this.

    I think you will have to go through a spares dealership if Stihl themselves will not help.. Have you contacted them.?
