    I also bought a 125B blower because I have had good experiences with the Husqvarna brand.After the experience  with this not again.

    Right out of the box it was doggy and would not rev out to maximum throttle.Should have took it back but I used it and it seemed to break in finally. Then last fall started having problems again .Had to keep it choked to use it.Because it was still under warranty I attempted to utilize the warranty .I did not want to void warranty by repairing it myself.Lowes as you have all found out was no help.

    Husky customer service directed me to one service center that refused work because it was not purchased from them.Found another service center that was very helpful but up front told me that if it was a fuel problem I would be the one paying.Decided I had nothing to lose so I tore it down myself. 

    I found the fuel lines were deteriorating.Replaced them but the guy told me that it was the ethanol fuel that caused it.Sounds like a catchall problem these guys are to use.

    Anyway I took the time to tear down the carb and  clean it while I had it apart.As you others have found you need a special tool to remove the high and low speed jet screws.The carb cannot be properly cleaned unless those screws are removed and sprayed out with carb cleaner.I attempted to find one to purchase and do the job correctly.Cost prohibitive if you can find one.20-40.00 for a screw driver!!

    Ingenuity took over.I used a dremel tool with a cutting wheel to cut a slot into both screws.Because of the proximity to the edges  you will be cutting into the protective surrounding area but it is nothing that you will damage.Now I was able to use a flat screw driver to remove and replace the screws.Blower is back to running again..But my next blower will be an ECHO..No more huskie products for me..
