Weedeater model 368791030 will run as long you have the choke engaged, but when I use the throtle it quits running as if it is not getting gas. Should I check the carburater for dirt?
Thanks for your help,
Joe Thomas

Hi,
The most probable culprit is the inlet screen in the carb. WeedEater is the only manufacturer that specifies a dutch twill screen, which is highly restrictive and readily clogged. Oddly enough you cannot buy it, only the normal replacement, which is a good thing. Other possibilities are the fuel filter or the diaphrgms, but the screen has a 90% chance of being it.
Peace,
Clarke
