I just ordered what I thought were decent aftermarket carbs for both of these pieces of equipment that have been sitting for a few years. The manufacturer's box stated "HUTZL" brand, but both give me the same results on both machines: easy start, but no power, no acceleration, no running after a few seconds. One won't prime properly, the other does, but both machines just bog down with any attempt to get the motor(s) beyond mid-range RPM.
Am I missing something? I've torn down outdoor power equipment for years, have done hundreds of maintenance overhaul kits (carb, fuel/air filter, plug/gap, fuel lines, tank clean out, oil pumps (on saws), and so on, but I just can NOT get these two machines to run, and they both run exactly the same, CRAPPY!
Does anyone here have a recommendation for a good quality aftermarket carb for these units? I'm CERTAIN I'm dealing with a carb issue, but then again. Heck, I just don't know, but I'd like to get them running since I'm doing this for a buddy and doing it for nothing to help him out.
Thank you!
