Stihl Tri-ing
Hey guys,
I bought a Echo PE-230 stick edger off Craigslist, the fuel lines were rotted (should have see the guy pulling on it trying to show me that it starts with gas going everywhere. .) Got it home & replaced fuel lines, checked filter & tank vent. Cleaned the carb & replaced the diaphrams. Replaced the spark plug (very dirty) & someone else had already pulled out the spark arrest. The idle took a little tuning. Here's my problem, WOT it just doesn't seem to rip like it should. If I close the H screw all the way it will stall, more than about 1/2 turn out, with the air filter off, I get a little fuel misting out the intake, further out it sprays more but doesn't seem to effect the motor. I cleaned the carb again and still the same thing. Any thoughts?
