![]() Is the little "California restricter" (not the proper name but I don't know what Stihl calls it ) in the muffler plugged? If it was made anytime within the last few years it has an emissions control "thingy" screwed into the muffler.

I used it two other times this year and ran good and the third time I used it, I had the above stated problems and I did not make any carb adjustments at that time. The local dealer was little help as he told me to put in new gas and no ethanol which is what I have been doing all along. I put it back together and it ran about the same as before and I could tell by the sound of the engine it started to run better several seconds before it ran out of gas. I can see what appears to be a lot of gas coming into the venturi by the throttle plate while it is running. I can see that the choke is open. I took the carb off and took it apart, cleaned it but did not see anything wrong. I adjust the high and low speed jets which do not seem to have any effect. If you put the air cleaner on when it is running it will die. It is hard to keep running and is smoking. It will only start with the air cleaner removed and even then runs very rich. I have a Stihl 045C weed eater that does not run right. Posted 15:06 (#3118881) Subject: Stihl weed eater doesn't run right Stihl weed eater doesn't run right Jump to page : 1 Now viewing page 1
