#ryobi #backpackblower #leafblowerwontrun A friend of mine gave me a backpack blower that starts and runs, but will not rev up to full speed. Lets take a look at some options of what could be wrong and see if we can fix this leaf blower.
Thanks for your video helped me out and comments and detail was good. Might have been interesting to show other carburator problems by mis-adjusting both high and low. Or best practices for dialing in carb settings from scratch. 😎
Thanks for taking the time to walk us through this. Half a turn counterclockwise did the trick. I'll let it cool and see if the setting took. Appreciate the tutorial.
Thank you. Sometimes the easy stuff gets overlooked. I’m just hoping to help some folks if they have the same issue. Thank you as always for stopping by.
Thank you Roger. I’m debating keeping this one for my lawn care business, but either way I’m very thankful it was such an easy fix. That recoil certainly needs some lube and I think it will be good to go.
@@freedommowers420 They sell the pull starter w/ a new housing. It's pretty common. There's a reason they do it. Don't waste your time like I did for my customer. I broke again before it left the shop and I had to disassemble it. Keeping one in stock now. Good video, best of luck
Good videa. Exactly my problem with my BP42 and will try to follow your instructions. Results to follow. I just hope i adjust the H screw not the L screw. Maybe it would have been helpful if a closeup shot of H screw was shown.
Good day eh!! You lucked out here eh!! A pretty quick fix and hopefully that is all this blower needs. Sometimes it's little things and quick fixes!! Take care!!
Thank you. So far just the carb adjustment as well as freeing up the pull start. Should be a pretty good unit. Thank you for stopping by, and hope things are good your way
Problem is the newer blowers no longer have adjustment screws for the high and low speed. Absolutely ridiculous. I even put a new carb on mine and it still bogs. Only have 8 hours on it to and use only 50:1 vp premixed fuel. No more Ryobi for me. I'm buying a Echo...
It sounds like maybe the diaphragm is stuck letting too much fuel get through. Maybe it’s just running too rich and when it’s out of gas it leans out enough to run properly.
I run a lawn care service and have been in need of a backpack blower. I worked out a trade with a friend of mine for this unit. He gave it to me for exchange on fixing some of his other equipment.
On that carburetor, the hi and lo adjustments are not "usually" as you described them - they are "always" hi nearest the air filter, lo nearest the engine. Just sayin'.
Spark arresteor speak .plug and air fliter plus fuel filter are the one's that I would check on hopefully you are a great yard mowing season be safe. Out there young man😎
Yes all good things to check with these symptoms. Thankfully it was an easy fix. Yes things have been good on the lawn care. Busy busy. I hope the same your way 🤘😎
Did the adjustment ( half turn ) and still bogging down and dying. Replaced fuel filter and spark plug. Any other ideas to troubleshoot? … how many turns can you do on the screw without burning out the carborator?
