Very good video

Magnific 👍

I got a echo backpack blower ran changed the plug ran better then wouldnt start on my next job. I got spark anf compression but it wont turn over even with starting fluid

How about poorly adjusted carb right from the factory, or factory not honoring their warranty?

When you started off with "empty gas tank is frequently overlooked" I knew this was not the video for me... And as mentioned, deteriorated gas lines is usually the 1st problem, ok that ones easy. After that, the main problems with yard equipment that I always have is the primer bulb will not fill with gas (even a new bulb) or it will idle but die when you pull the trigger. I am sick to death of 2 stroke engines, you shouldn't have to replace the carb, bulb and lines every year!

Which type of leaf blower do you recommend?

@@allan5692 I recommend electric! Kobalt is nice. Since my last comment I had to put a new carb on my Husqvarna weed eater. Put a new one on last fall and 1st time I needed it this year it wouldn't run. I did EVERYTHING outside of changing the carb and wouldn't run. New carb, ran just fine. I only used it twice last year after the last carb, its a joke! I bought an electric Kobalt weedeater this year as a backup and its not as powerful but gets the job done. They had a weedeater/leafblower combo but I didn't buy that cause I have a Poulan leaf blower with, yeah, the same problems everytime I try to use it. Which isn't often but replaced the carb at least once on it

I agree. I'm absolutely sick of 2 strokes. I'm all about electric, but the power just isn't there yet

If you just run the machine dry when your done with it or drain the fuel when your done with it, after you drain the fuel start it and let it die you won't have the issues your having. I've done this with all my 2 strokes and they start right up Everytime. The biggest thing that ruins them is ethanol fuel

I have a Poulan Pro PR48BT Backpack Blower do you have a video troubleshoot Poulan Pro PR48BT Backpack Blower the spark plug is not sparkling I think it's the kill switch how do I troubleshoot this

My back pack blower will not crank with the air filter on. I put a new one on and it still doesn't crank unless I take it off. I am totally confused

Stihl bg50 blower, rope broke. Installed new one. Now it kicks back trying to start. Running fine till rope broke.

I have a little Craftsman 25cc blower. Even though it is probably 12 or 13 years old it doesn't have more than 2 or 3 hours on it. It had only failed to start once in the past and new gas fixed it. When I recently started to use it I noticed it was low on fuel so I added some trufuel that is nearly a year old. It started right up and ran for maybe 3 minutes before shutting down. I replaced the fuel with a fresh mixture that included the same fuel I use in my car. It won't start. Even though it has some age it has very little use and the fuel is fresh and the plug still looks new. I am at a loss.

Yeah I don't know man.2 weeks ago second pull it fired right up,ran fine.Yesterday I yanked on it till I was blue in the face.I don't get it.Was ready to smash it against a tree.It's got fresh gas,new plug last fall.Fuck that thing.

How about this one! My blower quit and wouldn't start. I checked for spark with my spark tester and it fired up with the spark tester installed??? I took the spark tester off and plugged the wire back on the plug and it would not start?? I reinstalled the spark tester and the blower fired right up??? My blower will not start/run unless the spark tester is inline with the ignition??? I am very confused?? Could it be a resistance issue in the coil and sending to much voltage to the plug and with the spark tester inline it creates the right resistance?

Check coil gap. Check plug gap & try a new plug.

what about poor compression??

I have a problem where my blower won’t run properly unless I have the cap on the gas tank off or loose. I just replaced the carb and fuel lines. Any help would be much appreciated

Change the fuel cap, some of them have small holes. Gas tanks need to breathe. Your fuel cap could be bad and cause the problem.

How to check ignition coil

I am so sick of this Polan Pro.....Initial start up just fine....do not dare shut it off if I plan to re-start until it sits for 2 to 3 hours !!

You left out the part about deteriorated or broken fuel lines, which is a frequent problem.

This reminds me of the meme pointing out that older car manuals taught u how to adjust valves while newer cars warn u agaisnt drinking the contents of the battery... we're so screwed

Step one: don't buy Husqvarna. Total garbage.

Not helpful

Waste of time

Why does every video have stupid intros.

I really dislike your long intro
