Question:
Purchased a 125B blower (S/N 20114503028) at Lowes 7-24-12. The tank gas line broke off at the end opposite the weighted filter. Is this a regular occuring problem? I could replace the filter and line myself and not have to take the blower to a service center if Husqvarna would send me the parts.
Answer
Unfortunately with todays fuel it is a very common problem among all small engines, not just Husqvarna. The ethanol in the gas eats away at the rubber hoses. The only way to totally prevent this is to use an ethanol free gas. Here's a link to a video Husqvarna made with the effects of ethanol on todays small engines.
