OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Repairs and Maintenance Questions on Trimmers and Brushcutters Ryobi Trimmers & Brushcutters PLT 3043S, bogging down and stopping?

Hi there,
I have so far cleaned the the arrestor on the exhaust, removed the exhaust and checked for blockages, removed the carby and cleaned with some contact cleaner, cleaned the carby screen and reassembled everything.

The engine starts pretty well first time as per normal starting methods, choke, half choke for a bit then normal run. However when switching to normal run on the choke lever and giving the throttle a quick squeeze the engine just bogs down and dies.

I can run it on half choke for a bit but eventually it will do the same thing, bog down and die.

It will sometimes run at full throttle for a few seconds (10 or so) until it bogs down and dies..

Any ideas?

Dennis
