Ryobi bp42 backpack blower won't stay running and spit out gas

Common issues and possible solutions: Fuel-Related Issues: Check the Fuel Level: Ensure that the blower has enough fuel in the tank. If it's running low, refill it with fresh, properly mixed fuel as specified in the user manual. Remember to use the correct fuel-to-oil ratio to avoid engine damage. Inspect Fuel Lines: Examine the fuel lines for any clogs, kinks, or leaks. Clean or replace them if necessary. Clean the Carburetor: A dirty or clogged carburetor can cause starting and running problems. Remove the carburetor, clean it thoroughly, and check for any damaged components. Replace the diaphragm and gasket if needed. Spark Plug Issues: Check the Spark Plug: Inspect the spark plug for signs of wear, fouling, or damage. Ensure it's properly gapped and functioning. If needed, replace the spark plug . Air Filter and Intake System: Clean the Air Filter: A clogged air filter can affect performance. Remove the air filter, clean it, and ensure proper airflow. Inspect the Intake System: Make sure the intake manifold is secure and not loose. Tighten any screws or connections. Heat Soak: Sometimes, backpack blowers experience heat soak, where the engine becomes too hot to start. Allow the blower to cool down before attempting to restart it. Compression and Ignition Coil: Compression Test: Check the engine's compression using a compression tester. Low compression may indicate internal engine issues . Test the Ignition Coil: Ensure the ignition coil is functioning correctly. A faulty coil can lead to starting problems.

Ryobi RY09056 2 cycle leaf blower. How much oil do I put in crankcase of it please?

Question edited for clarity and toss in some CAPS. None Larry! It is a 2 stroke machine so the crankcase is lubricated by the oil that is mixed with the gas. I double checked to see if it had a gearbox. It is just an engine and a fan https://www.google.com/search?q=ryobi+ry09056+crankcase+oil Manual which includes maintenance https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1090412/Ryobi-Ry09056.html#manual ..

Ryobi ry40500 electric chainsaw runs for about 3-10 seconds and stops. Power released and will run for 3-10 seconds again. Not able to cut with it.

Sounds to me like there is either a connection fault Or a Safety Cut out Switch that keeps.... well..... Cutting out or In as the case would Be. A Google search on the Make & Model number on your Ryobi Ry40500 electric Chainsaw Could bring up some answers. My Guess is the Safety Guard Cut out safety Switch is faulty.

Ryobi 40v trimmer stopped working except when I apply pressure to the shaft. Problem is the elec connection where the trimmer screws into the main shaft. Anyone have any ideas how to repair this?

Phong Tran. It is better to write your own question rather than tagging on to an unanswered question from 7 years ago. Some help in the link for stripping down and repairing electrical issues. https://www.google.com/search?q=ryobi+40v+trimmer+bad+connection+problem ..

Green light on new Ryobi charger flashing when trying to charge battery it that normal

Yes, the green light flashes until the battery is fully charged on Ryobi chargers. This will change to a solid green light when the battery is fully charged until the charger goes to a power-saving mode. Not all of the Ryobi chargers have a power-saving mode. However, for those that do, the green led will dim over time and then brighten and dim slowly again in this mode. My Ryobi charger, model P113, actually has a key for the LEDs on the unit on the left of the battery port. The manual for this charger is here: https://manuals.ttigroupna.com/system/files/5495/original/P113_192_trilingual.pdf?2011 . Ryobi has many of their manuals on their site. Look up your charger/tool here: https://www.ryobitools.com/power-tools/support/manuals , Home Depot's web site also has many of these manuals on the product site for the tools that they sell. I hope this helps. Cindy Wells

Ryobi - RY251PH 25CC String Trimmer. Do ring openings go one on intake and the other on exhaust port?

Question edited for clarity, add maker. Question moved from Cars and Trucks category. No! Ring openings want to be nowhere near the ports as it is possible for them to catch, snap, snag and do a lot of damage. If the ports are at 12 and 6 on a clock face, you want the ring gaps to be a 3 and 9, and top one at 3, next ring at 9 etc. alternating, depending on 2 or 3 rings.

I have a Ryobi RY40009 40 volt trimmer and it won't start. Battery is charged and works on other tools. Makes a quick sound and then nothing. Trimmer head sometimes barely moves if at all.

Ryobi 18V Battery green lights stay on, fully charged, won't power drill

Seems batteries have completed their normal life and require replacement. Keep in mind that when batteries are exhausted, their voltage remain normal but loose current. It seems that batteries do not sustain current i.e. have become un usable.

Broken reciprocating saw blade stuck in saw

Hello, I found a very quick and easy solution to this. Pulling the blade release and shaking, and taking the saw apart, did not work. What worked instead was to simply turn the saw on while pulling the blade release at the same time - when I did that, the piece of stuck saw blade came shooting out. Please be VERY CAREFUL while doing this, making sure you are wearing eye protection and pointing the saw away from others, so that no one gets hurt by the ejecting blade piece. I would also suggest knocking and shaking the saw while holding the blade release before you try this, as another poster suggested, because if the blade piece is big enough it might come out this way, or at least it may help loosen it so that it will easily eject outward when you turn the saw on. Good luck!
