Title: Craftsman leaf blower. Trash pile pick up.
Post by: trail twister on January 03, 2017, 08:18:25 am
Picked up this leaf blower and used it for a couple of years summer to clean off my Z turn after doing peoples lawns so seed didn't get transferred. Also used it in the winter to clean light snow falls off the car/truck. then it started running for a little bit and quitting. Maybe no fuel cap venting remove the cap and did the same thing. Maybe it needs a new fuel line might be sucking air instead of fuel. Yup broken in several places and replaced yet still did the same thing. Pull carb and clean it soaking for a few days then blowing with compressed air. I did find crap in it when I took it apart but when I reassembled it it did the same thing.
I tried order a carb rebuild kit from sears but they say they never had a blower with that model number. even when I plunk it down on their counter they denied it is theirs, bunch of city A holes work there.

Carb is a Tilison but I can't find a number on it.

Do you know this leaf blower.
