Echo PAS 225 Trimmer with 21.2cc 2 stroke egine.
I have a 2-year-old Echo trimmer in excellent condition. I run premium gas with ethonal treatment and take very good care of it.
This year it started acting up. It starts right away but after around 15 minutes it starts stalling. If I play with the choke I can get it running for a liitle while but eventually will not run at all.
1st - I replaced air cleaner and fuel filter and emptied/replaced gas with carb cleaner added. - no help
2nd - I took apart the carb, cleaned it and it worked better for a little while than started up again with the stalling.
3rd - I installed a new carburater and full filter - this got it to work, but only for a day. The next day it started acting up again doing the same thing.
At this point the only thing I havent done is replace the spark plug mainly because I dont have the right socket and cant imagine this is the cause my problem
I am REALLY hoping someone here could help me diognose and figure out a fix because it wasnt cheap, I really like it and I dont want to buy a new one - especially since I am assuming it is fixable.
Thank you very much for any input -
