It runs great, power is good and all is working as it should. When it dies, it does just that, dies quickly like it has been turned off. Things I have done.
1 - Replaced the gas tank and all fuel line (no help)
2 - Cleaned the carb inside and out (no help)
3 - Replaced the carb (no help)
4 - Replaced the spark plug, which I had done last year, but what the heck, (still no help)
5 - Lastly, replaced the coil and as of right now, it ran about a half a tank of gas with no issues!
Thanks - Kent
I have had my Husqvarna 128LD for 4 years. Last year it towards the end of summer it got to here it would only run for about 2 to 3 minutes, then die. It would start right back up and then within 2-3 minutes, die again. Needless to say, when you pay over $200 for a piece of equipment, you expect it to last more than 40 hours worth of operation.
I have followed all the suggestions on this page, it has set me back almost another $75 dollars, so now the cost per hour run time is even higher. I just put on yet another new carb tonight. It fired right up and ran for about 2 minutes. I took the gas cap off and again, 2 minutes.
There are 2 other people on my block with the same trimmer and we all have the same issue. I guess tomorrow we are giving up on the orange Husq!
Sorely disappointed.
