Echo PB260L Bogs

12 years ago

Having issues with my Echo 2 cycle back pack blower model PB260L. Starts up fine, bogs/stalls when throttled up. can maintain some higher RPM with choke almost completely activated. has fresh gas/oil. air filter, spark plug are new. replaced carb with brand new one. muffler screen must be ok since it will throttle up on choke. stumped - any advise?
Thanks - Marty

More history might help toward making suggestions. Such as:
1. How old is the unit or approximate hrs to need a carb? Sounds like itÃ¢ÂÂs sucking air at a connection.
2. Do you feel good compression starting and see/hear good exhaust when it reevs?
3. Is this the 1st season of use on the new carb? How long and well did it perform on new carb?
4. Are you using Stabil or fuel treatment while using/storing and how long is it stored?
5. Have you checked all fuel lines and carb for a tight fit vs sucking air.
6. Have you spot checked diaphragm and fuel screen in the carb?
7. Have you tweaked carb mixture screws?
