How to adjust carb screws on homelight mighty lite 26bv

Instructions for the Homelite Leaf Blower Pull Cord Replacement

Sounds like a lean condition. Rebuild carb, replace fuel lines and fuel filter and you should be ready to blow the leaves.

there is no air filter on my 26bv blower

Hello,
To replace the string, you need to open the center cap by unscrewing the screw in the middle of the rotatory wheel. Then you will see the channel where the string runs through put the string there and close everything.
Thanks.

Starting with the question which screw is which: the low speed screw is closest to the engine and that makes the high speed screw farther away. Set the screws 1 turn out and then adjust as needed.

sounds like an air/ fuel mixture/ratio problem.there should be two screws side by side near the carb. crank trimmer and slowly adjust screws, in or out, till engine runs smoothly..

yes there is two screws that set the carb up,,,one is the slow running screw the other is the fast rev set up screw ,,,set the slow running one up first

the units came out with EPA carb's some have idle screw adjustment and preset high jet, or the other way depending on the unit. try and change the fuel, use only high octane fuel for 2 cyc no ethanol with fresh oil mix, run for about 5 to 10 min's. if your carb has adjustment screws set your low side idle screw but still change the fuel.
