About 10 tanks through her, just used her 3 weeks ago and she ran fine then. I switched from 87 to 89 octane and made up some fresh mix which my other saws run fine on with very minor adjustments. Today, she starts and idles fine but when I hit the throttle she screams for 5 or 10 seconds then dies. WTF??? I put her away dry 3 weeks ago, and she sat for 2 months with half a tank in her before that, so I think the carb must have gotten plugged or something, but why does she run fine for 5 or 10 seconds (sometimes longer) if the jets are plugged?
My local dealer said if I brought it in, it would take until the end of the week, and I'd really like to get her fired up before then. Any ideas on how to clean a hopefully not too gunked up carb?
Thanks
