Have a Toro weedeater that I purchased 3 years ago and has been running great.
Run it out of fuel at the end of every season and it was working great all Spring.
Starting having issues the last two weeks with it not wanting to idle, just dies when you let off the gas.
starts easy and runs full power like it always did.
Changed the fuel filter and looked at the air filter and it looks clean.
Sprayed the carb with a little Amsoil power foam and let it soak for a couple of hours with no improvement.
Dumped out the gas and put more in even though my leaf blower is running the same mix from the same can.
Did not change the plug but did remove it and cleaned it off and it did not help.
Removed spark arrestor and cleaned it off even though it looked pretty good .
Thinking it may be carb related ?
open to ideas ... thanks
