Clean out your exhaust port if thats not been done the exaust cant escape so will have no throttle theres a little spark arrester filter in the exaust clean that as well while your at it :ebony:

mate i have the same blower ,same problem.never let it run dry of fuel.and give it a good run on choke .but more importantly they [stihl] are very sensitve with regards to fuel mix

Well If The Ones That Say They Know There Product Repair It For You At Your Cost And It Doesnt Work After The Repair I Would Go Back An Ask For My Money Back This Goes On Day After Day And People Are Ripped Of Millions Of Dollars A Year .
Sometimes The One That Services Your Product Is Not A Small Petrol Mechanic .
