Thank you for the vid. I usually take the spark arrestor screen hold it with small vice grips and torch it. Even a small lighter will work. Torch it until it gets red hot and burn off all the carbon. It takes about 5 minutes.

I have the same trimmer, just replaced the spark plug, fuel lines and filter, air filter, and also clean the spark arrester and it’s still bogging. I also cleaned the carb.

@piotrfolczyk8589

There is the fuel tank vent thingy, that resembles fuel filter but just dangles, could be that. I am second guessing the carb cleaning. It is bunch of tiny jets that could be obstructed and not easy to access and rinse or blow. I just checked spark arrester and replaced the carb rebuild kit due to sticky membrane and I am also here. Spark plug is still ahead of me but I think good ole Italian tune up - running the thing at high revs may make a difference with some time and patience.

@TheLawnmowerLady

Have you tried adjusting the carb? Over time as filters and screens get clogged, folks will adjust those screws to compensate. You didn't say if you replaced the fuel pump and metering diaphragm when you cleaned the carb, or how you cleaned the carb. Maybe another check of the metering lever to make sure it's not bent at a bad angle? Hope this helps.

Did sll thisbsnd still bogs outb

Question here: I took the filter right out and left it out; the trimmer still bogs down. I am guessing it’s the air filter and maybe needs a new spark? Assuming the filter is clean and a new spark is installed, would the bogging down then be caused by the screen?

@TheLawnmowerLady

2 ай бұрын

If the spark arrestor screen is clogged, it produces too much back pressure for the exhaust, and will run poorly. 2-stroke small engines need to breathe adequately on the intake and the exhaust.
