Absolutely the right instructions. I have an echo machine, and the fix is the same. Thank you!

Alternate cleaning the flash arrestor screen, using hand held butane blow touch. Heat the screen till red hot, carbon will disintegrate. Job done in a few seconds. Hold the screen with long nose pliers.

Here in the uk stihl tools dont appear to have an accessible spark arrestor so is there any solutions you could give for a 1 piece muffler.
Also how about (if you can take the spark arrestor out) using a blowtorch to burn away the carbon?

I have an echo GT225 weedeater that dies when I throttle up. I checked the spark arrester and found no carbon buildup. I just replaced the carb, filter, and spark plug about 2 weeks ago. Ran fine 2x and now a day ago, it started doing thisl Not sure what else to check. I appreciate your help.

What cause clutch drum to get stacked?

Criminy! This was my problem. I don't work on 2 cycle much and didn't even know this was a thing. I always assume it's gas or carburetor gunked up due to the the stinkin' alcohol. Spent a bunch of time looking down the throat when I should have been looking up the butt. Hope my doctor has better sense than me.

You saved me $700 I was going to spend on a new machine.

This happened to my KM56 as well. Nice looking machine when it's in the shop but a cheaply made piece of junk

Take a small torch to the screen and you can burn the carbon off

[willardwebb]

Did you turn the choke off the first time, I didn't see you, 🤣 that will cause a bog also

[SlimTortoise]

One of the the half dozen reasons it bogs down and not the reason mine bogs down. But thanks anyway.
