Leaf Blower issue
I hope that this is the correct place to post this.
I have a craftsman leaf blower, and it has been a great yard tool from many years. Now the problem: This past year the only way it will run is with the choke on 1 1/2 clicks. What's up with that??? It works OK, but it is a pain to keep the lever in the right spot. How do I adjust this? Thanks Dave |

Used to have all kinds of trouble with my string trimmer till I started using gas stabilizer, all the time. |
