OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Repairs and Maintenance Questions On Hand Held Blowers/Vacuums Petrol Blowers & Vac's Homelite Blower

Yes I could try that I suppose I do have a spare complete engine from a similar model blower.It might be worth trying although it is a big operation have to pull it completely apart to get into those bits.

Hi from sunny Qld, l have pulled apart my homelite petrol blower because I had the same problem I had great spark and fuel and no go so flywheel had to come off and the keyway was good too after that I took the muffler off . Ifound what I thought was a pretty badly scored piston so I assume the motor now has no compression although it felt like it had plenty when I tried starting it . Got to this stage and don't know how to get conrod and piston out.
