New Husqvarna 125B blower runs fine then stalls

My brand new, right out of box Husq 125 blower, just added correct gas/oil mix, no problem starting, warmed it up, then after using for 1 min on high, it slows... slows... slows... then stalls. Restarts easy, then same problem. Whats up ?

Is the gas fresh or old that you used. Since this brand new, it's under warranty. If you've had it for a few days, return to the store from which purchased it. It should run right out of the box without having to work on it.

A few possibilities, first check the tiny little vent hole in the gas cap for a clog.Second, check the fuel filter in the tank. Third, remove the muffler and inspect the piston for scores and that the rings are free, remove ant carbon build up from the exhaust port. If the trouble persists its time to go into the carb, The pump and metering diapgragms will harden over time and loose their elasticity and cause this problem also

SOURCE: husky 125B blower, new right


Hello,
My name is Dane and I am going to assist you in solving your problem.

You will need to adjust the high speed setting on your Carburetor jet. Turning the screw out just 1/2 turn or so should do the trick. It is not so hard to adjust the Carburetor, however, yes you do need a special tool that is very hard to get your hands on, in order to adjust the jet screws. They don't make many engines with plain screw heads anymore. The newer Carburetors are factory set lean so they can pass emission standards. Since you just bought yours, a local husky dealer should adjust the mixture for free. I hope I've helped. If you found this reply useful, please leave me some THUMBS UP, if you feel I

SOURCE: Husqvarna model 125b Hand held blower (Gas) No

If you have tried a new spark plug and you still have no spark, then your Ignition Coil, (Module) has gone bad. They aren't cheap if you buy it new. Try to find a used one if you can for around $10.

Good Luck!

SOURCE: whats the best premix gas to use on a Husquarna 125B hand held Blower

The best mix to use is what's recommended in the manual but in most cases blowers use a 50:1 mix. The difference from 40:1 to 50:1 is negligible but you have to use what the motor is built for. Too much oil causes a loss of power because the gas won't burn efficiently. Too little oil and you risk damaging your piston or cylinder.

Husqvarna 125b won't prime and run unless upside down. If turned right side up it dies. If I prime it when it's right side up it blows bubbles in the tank.

Try a new gas cap. There needs to be air behind the liquid in a vacuum (think plumbing) or it does not flow. Make sure you've replaced all the cracked lines. Allowing air into the vacuum will also stop the flow. It's one of these.

Required fuel oil mix

Two-stroke oil with a 50:1 (Gas:Oil) mix ratio is required for the Husqvarna 125B leaf blower. Using the wrong oil or improper mixture ratio can drastically affect the performance of the leaf blower.

What are the steps to start my husqvarna 125b handheld gas blower

Put fresh gas/oil mix (if it is a 2 cycle) in the tank.

Put the choke on. Push the primer bulb 3-6 times. Pull the cord until the engine sputters. Put the chock to 1/2 way, pull cord again. Should start and run a bit with choke set there, then in about 10 seconds, put the choke completely off.

I have a Hasqvarna 150BT blower that started to make a knocking noise at full power and has lost some power. Seems to start ok. Loss of power / rpm and knock are only ploblem?

I had the same issue with a Husqvarna 150 BT blower. Brand new ran through 2 tanks of gas and need to buy more gas , mixed 50 to 1 ratio 87 octane on new gas which was the same as what i was running and it started pinging and running like **** then stalled and would not start. took the plug out and it was fouled. cleaned the plug got it running again but still not good. This model comes with a NGK CMS7H plug which i replaced with a champion RZ7C and new gas 93 octane and lawnboy oil mixed 50 to 1 ration and now its running like a champ. I've had bad experiences with NGK spark plugs in the past and thought this may resolve the issue and it did. Hope this is helpful to anyone out there having the same issues. Also used some fuel stabilizer in the fuel mix, I hear this helps with the ethanol problem in the fall/winter gas.
