Check the compression it may be on its last legs. Try leaning out the
high speed adjustment screw, I cant hear it run or how much it slows so
adjust the carb first, is choke fully opening.

Electric or gas? How old? Did it do this last season, or just started
this spring? 2cycle or 4 cycle?

m Ransley may be right. That could do it.

Was the gas drained at the end of the year? Could be a problem there.
I would suggest also checking any air cleaner.

Make sure YOU are using the proper gas oil mix now. That would sure
explain it and make sure you are using oil intended for 2 cycle use.

The last time I lent out my nice new Echo regular gas was used, it
fried, that is the last time I lent anything or ever will.
