Hey guys. I have a 20 year old Homelite ST-155 weed eater with a Zama C1U-H41 carb. I know this is a cheapo machine but it was free, has been used very little, and other than the carb problem works great. It starts very easily and will idle all day long. The problem is that it bogs on acceleration. By adjusting the screws the best I can do is reduce the bog to about one second before it accelerates. This carb is very sensitive, if the screws are not perfect it will just bog all day long.
The air filter is clean. The spark plug, fuel filter, and fuel lines are new. I'm using 93 octane gas mixed at 36:1 with fuel stabilizer. Any ideas here? Maybe I need to replace the diaphragms? Check the metering lever? Could I have a vacuum leak somewhere?
