Why does my Ryobi trimmer dies when I give it gas?
A clogged carburetor is most commonly caused by leaving fuel in the string trimmer for a long period of time. Over time, some of the ingredients in the fuel may evaporate, leaving behind a thicker, stickier substance. This sticky fuel can clog up the carburetor and cause the engine to stall.
What is the H and L on a carburetor?

Why does my 2 cycle engine stall when I give it gas?
One of the possible reasons why your two stroke engine is stalling when revved is because of a clogged filter. The fuel filter stops any debris or gunk that may be in the fuel tank from entering the carburetor and engine. If this filter gets clogged, then not enough fuel can be accessed by the engine for it to run.
Why does my trimmer dies when I give it gas?
Why does my weed eater die when giving it gas? The most common causes of a weed eater dying when throttled are fuel issues, insufficient air intake, or problems with the exhaust. You should follow the path that the fuel travels to identify the issue.
Why does my strimmer cuts out when revved?
If your trimmer engine idles, but stalls on throttle, check the following parts: the gasket, primer bulb, fuel filter, air filter, fuel vent, fuel line, and carburetor. Remove the air cleaner cap and filter, checking for any obstructions in the way that could block air flow, starving the engine of oxygen.
Can you clean carburetor without removing?
Cleaning a carburetor without removing it is fine. However, it can and should never replace the wholesome cleaning exercises. This is because it does not impact the entire length and breadth of the engine as should be the case.
Do 2 cycle engines have carburetors?
A 2-stroke or double barrel carburetor works the same way that a basic carburetor works, except that more air and gasoline can be pushed into the engine because there are more barrels or tubes and thus, more airflow.
What do H and L screws do on a carburetor?
This adjustment controls the fuel flow to the low speed or idle circuit. If the carburetor is too far out of adjustment to run, or has been disassembled, start with turning the L and H all the way in and then open 2 turns on each needle.
How do you reset a carburetor?
If the carburetor is new or has been rebuilt, you should set it to “factory” adjustment. You can do so by adjusting the idle mixture screws to 1.5-2 turns out, and the idle speed screw to 1-1.5 turns in. Warm the Engine Up. The engine’s running temperature directly correlates with proper air and fuel mixtures.
Why won’t my Weedeater keep running?
Remember: If your weed trimmer starts but won’t keep running that’s usually a sign of either a poor fuel/air mix or an easy-to-replace filter having gotten clogged, all of which are easy fixes to perform at home.
Why does my 2 stroke keep cutting out?
There is usually a special one-way valve in the fuel tank cap that allows the air to come in to the top of the fuel. The obvious effect this has on the engine is less fuel getting into the carburettor, which can contribute to the engine bogging down and eventually it will cause the engine to stop completely.
Why does my 2 stroke engine only run on choke?
When a two-stroke only runs on half choke it is usually the result of a dirty fuel cap, a leaking gasket, a clogged carburetor, or a gunky passageway. You can fix these problems by cleaning the carburetor, removing the fuel, and adding new gas.
When I open the throttle the engine dies?
A clogged air filter will starve the engine of oxygen, causing the engine to die at full throttle. The engine may idle normally, but at higher RPMs it may not get enough fuel, causing the engine to stall. To inspect or replace the fuel filter, follow the fuel line from the tank to the carburetor and locate the filter.
Why does my petrol strimmer loses power?
As with plug fouling, too much oil in the gasoline, inferior oil, a dirty air filter and/or continued operation at less than full throttle will plug the screen with carbon deposits. This prevents exhaust gas flow, which leads to power loss.
Why does my trimmer only run on full choke?
When your trimmer starts and runs on choke, it could be because the check valve in the gas cap is clogged. Start the trimmer and gently unscrew the gas cap halfway off. Turn the choke off and assess. If the engine is still running, that means the gas cap may be the culprit.
Why is my strimmer smoking?
Smoking can be caused by an overly rich fuel mixture or the presence of oil in the combustion chamber. On the more serious side, your engine may be seizing because it doesn’t have enough oil.
