Echo Leaf Blower Has Spark, Fuel, Compression But Won't Start? Do THIS 

Jaryl did a good job explaining everything, thumbs up.

12 o'clock "You folks with digital watches are going to have to work it out"...😁😂

The resemblance and knowledge levels of these cousins is uncanny! Good on you Taryl letting others use your shop and showing us DIY'ers how it's done.

Gentlemen, I've been trying for months to figure out why an Echo PB255 blower wouldn't start even though it has 90 pounds of compression, spark, and fuel. After finding this video, I learned that it uses the same flywheel and thus the same replacement parts. I followed your video, and the blower lives again! Thank you so much for your efforts! A thousand blessings upon you and your families!

Your cousin Jaryl Jack done a really nice job on that Echo 🍃 leaf blower Taryl.He should come to"visit"you more often.HAHA!!.🙃👍

Cousin derriere did a wonderful class

Taryl fixes all are the BEST videos ever on small engine DIY repair! Good job fellas! This was perfect and I don't even have an Echo leaf blower but you learn stuff that just gives you confidence doing other small engine jobs. Thanx!

This guy needs his own channel

cousin derrieré is always so much fun (and informative) to watch 😄

Him chuckin' that flywheel just got me!!!

I wish I could find the parts I need to use in the trash, in the original packaging, when I need them. Jarrel Jack needs to play the lotto.

I wanted to hear the rest of "slippers" story.

Both educational and entertaining very well done I was attacked for many years I enjoyed working on small equipment it was nice to see somebody repair one properly

Great video. It gives guys like me confidence in tackling things normally out of my comfort zone. Thanks to the group for letting cuz back!!

Thanks, Jartl Jack great video

Cousin Jaryl gave me tips that will help me repairing my Echo ES210 vacuum/leaf blower that has no spark. I could have use a impact tool with the recoil starter in place, probably damaging it. And then, not putting a rope/cord to deep in the sparkplug hole that could get caught in the intake/exhaust ports. All good stuff. Thanks for all of the great small engine videos, and intertainment. Karl

You guys are Fantastic to watch you explain everything in detail Thanks.

Jarrell Jack is an amazing character 😂

You really do cover everything. I just bought this new looking blower at a junkyard for $20 and I had the exact same problem. Sheared fly wheel. Thanks for the part numbers. Really helps out a diy mechanic. I did the same thing he did for troubleshooting and then when to check the coil and damn the flywheel is free spinning. At this time I thought , gotta see what taryl has to say about this

I really appreciate you showing the struggle of putting that key back in there. It's always frustrating when they say "this goes here" and then cut to it being installed. You da real MVP.

Wow, you do a really nice job of laying everything out along the way so lots of people dont make the common mistakes. Fantastic job on this video which fixed my issue. thank you.

Good job Jaryl.....looking forward to your channel.......Thanks for all the work you guys put into these videos.....one of the best channels on the Tube...

Think FAST: Fuel, Air (compression), Spark and Timing. Another great vidya!

Thanks for the rope trick!

I'm payin 40 a month 4 internet and watching Taryl is a great deal, commedy an learning something about small gas engines, can't beat that!

All those extensions on the air wrench really made me laugh, big smiles from the UK

Stumbled on this looking for something else. Don't own a gas blower but really enjoyed the video and skit. Even though I feel competent at many mechanical tasks, I still learned a couple of things and laughed a lot. Best use of 30 min on a hot summer day in Dallas... delaying my chores. Thanks!

I happen to fix the same leaf blower this afternoon then I saw this. Nice to know if I ever have a starting problem. All I had to do was put a handle on the rope. It runs well now. Thanks for the information.

Fairly new to your channel, so I hadn't come across your cousin yet. He done good, as you all do. He earned his dinner.

Thanks for another informative video Taryl.

Love your show folks.

Lol can’t express how much I love this channel

Excellent Demonstration .... Bravo !!

Great episode! Really enjoy your channel and your humor

did that ... and it did fixed my blower . Thanks !!!!

Straight forward instruction. Well done.

Brilliant man ❤️👀😃😎👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Great video solved my no start problem as I had the same symptoms (spark, compression, fuel were all good). I filed a bit of material off of the new key and fit no problem.

Jaryl is a hoot! "Ask me how I know..." Priceless humor!

He does a good job. Very informative. Great stuff Taryl and gang and happy Thanksgiving to you and your families.

I could be wrong, but you sound super patient. Clear precise video. Happy Thanksgiving!

Terrel you better get this guy Back up in the hills before he decides to open up his own shop!

more Jaryl Jack Derriere, this guy kills me

Mystery solved ! Mine wouldn't start , came across your video and found the same problem. Many thanks for sharing your knowledge.

These videos have been very helpful to me on my troy bilt lawn mower tractor. .

Thanks!

THIS SHOW IS GREAT

Thanks for another great video!!

Thanks I got the same issue , just for watching your video learned a lot

I have a Remington Ambush that may have same problem, it will start with starting fluid but won't keep running unless I have full choke on. I did take apart and clean the carbitrator once already and that didn't seem to improve it. I figure I may pull the carbitrator apart once again and double check that fine screen again, perhaps even though it looks clear there might be som "resins " remaining that I can't actually see and an air blast failed to remove. Thanks for another Great Video ..... Bravo !

Love your show.thanks

Great video but I do have one constructive comment. When you are screwing into plastic, ALWAYS start the screws by hand! Apply firm pressure and turn the screw BACKWARDS until you feel the screw drop into the previously cut threads. Then turn it clockwise a couple of turns until you are sure that the threads are fully engaged. Then you can run them down with the impact if you want but tighten them by hand. If you fall to do this, the steel screws can cut new threads which rips out the old threads. Then you have a stripped hole to repair. I spent 30 years repairing cars for a living and 10 years repairing copiers and printers. I’ve dealt with a lot of plastic parts.

Cousin Jaryl Jack did a good job.👍

Found all those parts plus the blower in a trash dumpster?....LOL

Best RU-vid find for me in a long time.

Well done guys

Thanks for a hilarious and informative video!

You guys are great. Love watching your videos.

Great info. I searched for how to vids for no start on this PB 250. I put a carb on it thinking it was carb. But, turned out 100% this flywheel issue. SPOT ON GUYS! Thank you so much for putting this info out there. Honestly I wouldn't have figure it out. And there was no other content I found on web about it or on youtube. This got a like a subscribe from me.

Lookout Teryl......cousin Jack looks like he knows what he is doing, explains everything well too.

Ive been a small engine tech for the last 13 years. Im the only tech in a very high volume shop. I STILL watch your videos if im in a pinch and need some advice. Thanks a lot for all the very informative videos. 👍

Awesome video! Thanks

Great job!!!

Great video I followed towards the end reinstalling the impeller bolt since I just replaced my ignition coil.

Great job fellas 👍

Digital watches!!😂😂😂

Brilliant video thank you ❤️👀😃😎👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Seriously..luv you guy's.. i am an small engine mechanic.. 100kms west of Sydney Australia.. Danny

Very informative and cool video

Excellent. VERY Informative Jaryl. Safe trip home............... I thought mainly outboards chewed out the flywheel key. Only 1 torque click needed . Done.

Good video derriere , tayrls got competition !

Cousin Jaryl does a great job splainin how to do things. Is he some kind of professional edgejumakator?

1000 foot pounds and the adapters had me rollin

Thanks for sharing

I have the Echo PB-255LN that I purchased on 4-12-2018 and used for light use residential. I have always used ethanol free fuel with the Echo or Amsoil full synthetic two-stroke oils. I am very picky about cleaning/maintaining my equipment and filters on everything I own. I start the blower like it says in the manual, this isn't my first rodeo, I already knew how. I started having starting issues with it towards the end of last fall 2021 and it bogging down and dieing and then taking at least 15 pulls to get it running again, in a struggleing manner. After dieing it would not start right away, I would have to let it sit for at least 15 to 30 minutes before it would struggle to start again, at least 15 pulls. I checked spark plug and it was clean but I replaced it anyways with the same NGK BPM8Y and I still had the problem. I did some online research and checked the spark arrestor but that was clean, I removed it so it would never become a problem in the future. I also checked the exhaust port and that was clean and no scoring on the piston. Took apart the carb to check but that was clean and no dirt/grime. Blower would still not fire-up without at least 15 pulls and then all same problem. I ended up using my electric blower over the winter. In March of this year 2022 I played with it again but same problem so I ordered a gasket/diaphram kit from Cutler's through Amazon. When it arrived I took apart the carb again the original gaskets and diaphram was still in pristine condition with no deteriation but I replaced it anyway. SAME PROBLEM! I then did some more research online and removed the plug for the low idle adjustment screw to play with that but that was of no help. I also removed the spark plug and it gets spark when visually checking, I don't know if it is a strong enough spark though, it does look bright and strong. I was told by a buddy that the coil could be dirty/surface rusty so I took everything apart to look inside and everything inside is imaculently clean. I did the business card gap check on the coil and it has the perfect light drag feel to it, so I didn't bother to even take off the coil yet. I called up the dealer where I bought it at since I have about 6 more months of warranty remaining but they said it would be at least a 4 to 5 week turn around. I try to fix most stuff myself since I'm capable of it and it's a half-hour drive down there for them to mess with it. Amazon has aftermarket coils for half the price as an OEM but they only last a few uses until they poop out is what the reviews have stated. It is not worth me paying about $90 for an OEM coil when the blower cost me $200. I've now come to the point where I'll just have to take it to the dealer for them to replace the coil if that is the problem and wait a month. I don't think they had the flywheel problem with the PB-255LN model and I'm not going to try to chase this problem any further. I'm taking it back to Austin Outdoor Power tomorrow and they can dick with it. I will not be buying another Echo blower again until they quit using crap parts. I'll probably end up converting to battery powered equipment since I'm sick and tired of gas powered problems and the amount of labor time I put into messing with them. I hate the price of what those batteries cost.

Hahaaaaa!!!! Aw man... i love your videos :) thank you!!!!🍺

you guys are the best....follow your videos you can easy became a good small engines mechanic!

Loved the torque wrench spanish lesson...zero out 💪🏼

Need more Jaryl vids

Got to love those etcho's!

I like cousin Jaryl. I like how he teaches. And he reminds me of someone that comes to our family reunions.

Seriously bro you're gold!

If you break or loose that plastic lock for the blow tube, a couple of well places screws from the outside will hold the tube solidly in place. It aint stock, but it's a cheap and solid fix.

Just learnt me something....thanks!!

New video thanks taryl

Mower Medic 1 sent me!!

Love it, great info and entertaining

You folks with digital watches got to figure that one out that was funny, nice instructional video great work

Very enjoyable veiwing

GREAT!!!!! LOVE IT U GUYS MUST HAVE THE SAME DENTIST

Great closing music HEAVY 😎Taryls CUZ

1000 ft lbs 😄 you guys are hilarious.

When I was a service tech for echo they had us reinstalling new laminated style flywheels with a different fan hub that had more surface area where it contacts the flywheel. We were told install it with red lock tite and were given no torque spec either. That’s why I think echo is a big joke, this was over 6 years ago when we started replacing thousands of these flywheels and they have just now came up with a correction to the issues. By the way the true issue was either the torque spec they were using from the factory or the lack of thread locker. I have fixed many of these with the original flywheel and fan hub by just putting a dab of red locktite and a good bit of torque on the hub itself. Have one of my own that I have used for years with no fancy parts. Aluminum flywheel is not really needed

I was just working on the same leaf blower. Had fuel, air, and spark. It wouldn't even start try to fire with starting fluid, but it did eventually start without it. I'm curious now if the timing just lined back up. Well, the neighbor will bring it back next time it doesn't crank, that will be the first thing I check. Thanks for the video.

Brilliant...👍😁

Cool, 😎 tools are essential.
