My husqvarna 128ld starts and idles fast but only with the choke half on. Give it gas or take the choke off and it dies. I have had it for at least two years and have only used husqvarna oil to mix with the gas. When not in use, I take the gas out of the trimmer.
Possibly a fuel starvation issue, incorrect fuel air mix or an air leak within the fuel system
SOURCE: Gas Trimmer will not stay started
My straight shaft trimmer will idle but dies when the I pull the trigger.
SOURCE: I have a husqvarna 125L gas trimmer and dies after
Could be clogged gas cap. Take the cap off and see if you can blow air through it. If no air passes, the trimmer will become vapor locked and wont be able to get enough gas.
SOURCE: My brand new Husqvarna 128
Husqvarna is a good brand, if you are having trouble with running at full speed there is something inherently wrong with your unit you do not want to keep it around, it will lead to more problems in the future. I would recomend that you return it and purchase a Stihl they are very reliable if you want a machine that stands the test of time. Even a Weed-eater brand from Walmart will start better than the one you have right now and you will pay less or the same for a comparable unit, That will run great! Good Luck...
