Troy-bilt 4 stroke trimmer won't stay running
I have a TB525 4 stroke trimmer. It is only 2 years old. I always drained the gas for the winter. It will start and only run in 1/2 choke with full throttle. Dies right away when I remove choke.
I disassembled the carb and it looked really clean. Gaskets looked good.If I spray WD40 around the carb, it will run better and run for a while with no choke. If I spray carb cleaner around the carb, it also changes the rpm.
I thought there was a leak but everything looks good.
Suggestions anyone?
BTW, fuel is fresh. I put some Seaform in there with no change.
