Question:
The air filter has been cleaned and I have used the proper gas/oil ratio but the blower has just started to run rough, and I don't feel comfortable to keep on using it and possibly make the problem worse if it decides to seize up or overheat. I have the 150 BT model. Any advice to what could be causing this? Thank you!
Answer
The first place to start is to have the carburetor adjusted as I have even seen new carburetors to need adjustments change as they settle into operation. It one of the reasons I don't release a newly rebuilt carburetor until it sits overnight with the fuel mix it and then I recheck it. But depending the age of your blower it might be time for carburetor rebuild too. With today's fuels and fuel oils most carburetors only work good for a few years before needing such rebuilds.
