Homelite Model UT20002A 25cc 2 cycle string trimmer
Problem: Bogs and stalls when choke lever placed in "Run" position, even after extended warm-up. It will run, with some bogging, in the "Half choke" position. It appears to be running too lean. I checked the following:
Air filter - clean.
Spark plug - OK
Exhaust baffle - clean and no carbon.
Gas is fresh and 50:1 mix as per manual.
See pix...
It appears that the needle valves are either sealed or pressed in. The owner's manual does state that if the unit won't run in the "Run" position to bring it to a dealer for service. Does anyone know if those valves can be adjusted to save a trip to a dealer?
