[QUOTE="I'llbearealclimberoneday, post: 5194696, member: 124914"] Some oil on the filter is normal with Echo trimmers. IME, running them half throttle seems to make them spit up a little more. If cleaning the spark screen doesn't fix your issue, id go on and replace the fuel lines. They can get squishy and close up under vacuum. Also, if your up to it, a carb kit is about $12 or so and there is a good chance either the diaphragm is worn or some of the rubber has deteriorated and clogged up the carb. Would be a good time to check the air gap and adjust if necessary. A faulty ignition could cause that, but in all my years of running Echo equipment, I've never had it happen. [/QUOTE]
