Arians 22 ton log splitter qustion

I think the carb. On this splitter is bad has anybody had a problem with these. And it's just over a year old and they don't cover fuel problems either!.

I don't have an Ariens log spliter but we do have Ariens lawn tractors, I have had to take the carbs apart about once a year and clean them with Honda carb cleaner, ethenol is bad stuff..

No problems with mine, but then I always run the tank and carb dry at the end of the day before I put it away, and always use E0 non-alcohol fuel.

Try running some Seafoam through it.

I waited awhile and it started on the first pull. I cleaned the carb. With breke clean and wiped it down with a rag and took out the screw on the bowl on the carb and let the gas run out, it seemed to work . I use 91 on the splitter and chainsaw.

I think I need a new carb. on it because it just don't sound right.
