First, you need to dump all of the fuel out of the gas tank, Preferrably into a gas container. If you know how much oil you dumped in, you can calculate how much more gas to add. You could also just dump the gas, re-mix some new gas and oil, whichever you prefer.

If you are comfortable doing this, remove the fuel lines going to the carberator and let them drain into a pan. Pump the fuel primer to purge the gas out of the carburator, and then re-install the fuel lines. This might help you get it started a little faster, but its not necessary. You can burn the old gas in the engine at it will be fine.

Next, remove and replace the spark plug. Its probably fowled out with too much oil. Keep a can of carb cleaner and a small wire brush handy, you may need to clean the spark plug a couple times. If it gets too dirty, you can replace the spark plug with a new one. Do not burn Carb Cleaner in your engine for long periods of time, it will damage the engine.

After you have installed the spark plug and put some correctly mixed gas in the tank, Try to start the engine again. There will be some residual fuel in the fuel lines going to the carberator, so you will need to burn off that gas.

If you can't get it to start, try these steps:
Choke off, throttle wide open, crank several times. (or let it sit in the sun for a couple hours) (this corrects flooding)
Prime carberatur, Choke full on, throddle idle position, crank until it fires once but does not start.
Choke half, crank until it fires again or starts.
If it starts skip this step: (Choke off, crank until it starts).
Keep the choke on half for about 10 seconds and let it idle.
Put the choke off and let the engine warm up for a couple minutes.
After warmup, test the throttle to see if it will run at full throttle (it may take some fluttering until the engine is fully warmed up)

Let the engine run at full throttle for a few minutes. The exhaust may be a little more blue-smokey than normal...this is the excess oil burning...totally normal and harmless.

SOURCE: What is the gas oil ratio for the Husqvarna 130BT

The ratio is 50:1. Use a good quality 2 cycle oil for mowers and equipment, not for boat motors. You can probably buy a bottle for the 50:1 ratio with just the right amount of oil. Look for a bottle with 2.6 oz. That is the correct one. You can use either regular oil or synthetic oil.

If you need an owners manual, go to Husqvarna.com and look for the homeowners manuals. Search for yours with a space between the 130 and BT( 130 BT )

130BT Blower can't pull start cord.

Can be a couple issues. The obvious is seized. The other is a broken jammed connecting rod. I would put some oil down the plug hole and let it sit overnight. Then after a day or so...try again with the wratchet. In both directions, forward then backward just to try and free it.

What is the oil mix for 2 gallons of gas for a 2 cycle gas leaf blower

Only use 50 to 1 as that is what is specified.

To get 50 to one ratio with the 6.4 oz bottle of 2 stroke oil just add 2 1/2 U.S.. gallons and that will be 50 to 1 ratio so you will have the correct ratio .

Put gas only in motor

Did you run it with the pure gas in the tank? If so, it's probably beyond repair of the average homeowner. If you did not run it put your mixed fuel in the tank, push the primer many times to force the oil/gas mix into the carb, and you should be good.

Worked last weekend will not start

Need more info. Is it getting gas? You can check this by squirting some fuel into the carb or spark plug hole and cranking it. If it tries to go, then it is getting gas. (Be sure to put the plug back in though). We can work from there. . .

HUSQVARNA 130BT GAS BLOWER STARTS FINE, BUT LOSES POWER WHEN I TRY TO USE????

Sounds like a fuel starvation problem, Strip and clean carb. Avoid using airlines to clean carbs. remove low and high adjustment screws, reset to factory settings. Walbro carbs are generally scew both of them back in all the way and then turn out 2 full turns each anticlockwise.

Hello, i have a husqvarna 130bt blower and it will start up fine and will idle fine but dies when squeezing throttle. I replaced gas, checked fuel lines, took muffler off and cleaned, and took carb off and...

Did you clean or replace the air filter?
Did you put too much oil into the fuel?
At idle, it it running roughly at all? If so, you may need to replace the spark plug.

My 130bt blower stops reving after several minuets. Will start but not rev after running fine for 5-7 minuets?

Hi and welcome to FixYa. I am Kelly. The next time it does this... loosen the gas cap a lot momentarily for about 10 seconds then tghten it and attempt a restart. If if starts right away again the gas cap is bad. It is supposed to breathe via a rubber seal in the cap. There are 5 parts in the cap. If it can not breathe the gas tank goes into a vacuum as fuel drains and you will experience fuel starvation.

Also check inside the fuel tank for debris.

Husqvarna Power Equipment
Blowers
130BT (I used the 2001 - 2007) There is also a 2008-2010 choice
and then click on Fuel tank a.s.s.y

I suspect the problem is either going to the the fuel cap or the fuel filter.

Thanks for choosing FixYa,
