I've got a customers BG86C blower in as it would start and run on choke but would die as soon as you give it any throttle. Its a fairly new fault as its a 2016 model and he's been using it commercially with no problems until a week or so ago.
I've don the usual things, checked for air leaks in the fuel line, replace the air and fuel filter, replaced the plug, checked the spark strength and all seems good. After cleaning the carb in the ultra sonic tank and putting me gaskets and diaphragms in, it still was no better so I chucked a new pattern carb on and it would keep running but not rev very high.
I then removed the exhaust which looked a bit coked up but not to bad but it did have a rattle inside. I fired the blower up without the exhaust and it ran perfectly so a new silencer was ordered. That turned up this morning and after fitting it I'm back to it not revving and dying once it drops back to idle.
(Edit) I should add I've put fresh fuel in and tried swapped it out for Alkylate fuel
What am I missing, every thing seems good but It just wont play ball!
