mine sucks

I have one of these and the thing never has run right. Won't run on "RUN" and will ony run on half choke. Even then it only runs at what I would say is about 50% power. Fresh gas and mixed correctly too. I still use it but it's getting worse to keep running all the time. Starts right up but then dies on full choke, then you have to start again at half but it barely runs. I let it idle for a minute then turn up the throttle and it usually bogs down and runs crapy. I should have returned

I was looking for 26B as in a quad rotary Mazda engine, as found in the 1991 Le Mans winner, with like 800hp, the Mazda 787B O_o Lol
A quad rotor (26B) powered leaf blower, I wish :S

@Inspectergadget69 True..

My Homelite blower works really well, quite chuffed that you can get really very good quality stuff like this so cheap. I use it to clean the gutters on the house and the light weight means I can easily carry it all over the roof. There is a lot of prejudice against chinese made stuff but why pay three or four times as much for something that is only used occasionally at home?
Thanks for this nice video. Please let me know whether it's round plastic volute plate at the bottom is tightly fitted with screw or loose without screw?

Hi Johnny, nice review. Over here, these models are around $80-90. Its a taut blower but im glad you recommend stihl and echo over this one for commercial work. I have the STIHL bg55 and 86 and those are awesome. What I really dislike about these late model Homelites - they're not built like they used to. I have their Mighty lite trimmer and quit after 1 year of semi-commercial use. Sadly I can't repair it, because no one has parts for them

@Jon3800 Thanks.. I agree. Just watched one of your vids with new 90R trimmer. Very nice.. If I mowed my lawn more than once a week, I'd have one of those for sure. I may try some Stihl equipment soon since there is a new dealer just up the street :) I've only had Echo in the past.
