Someone here has to know something about small two stroke motors. I can get the thing to start and I can open the choke and it will idle at max power okay. If I literally just rotate the motor a bit it will stall out.
I cleaned the carb last summer hoping it would help - it didn't. I used the dremel to put a notch in the port adjustments so I could play with them. On the one on the left of picture #1 If I adjust it a 1/16 turn CCW it helps it to start... if I adjust the second one ~1/2 to 3/4 turns CCW it helps the idle a better. Any other ideas?
Don't really want to spend another couple hundred on a perfectly crappy weed eater.
Frustrated and pissed off.
[edit] and I can't seem to upload my pictures either... they are jpeg, but they don't display when I hit 'upload files'.
