    My homelight mighty light won't run on run?
    Ok, So I just changed the spark plug, checked the tank and got my plugs smooth letting the primer run the gas through. Now I can have it run and stay running on full choke and half choke but when I move the knob to run, the sucker just cuts off like I choked it.. I can weed eat I suspose with it running on a choke but I'd much rather have it operating on run. Any suggestions?

    You have a vacuum leak. Look around base of carburetor and anywhere you can have a leak. Take some spray oil and crank up the motor, then spray oil around to test different spots. When you get to the leak it will smoke a lot. Once you find air leak fix it and the problem is solved.
