Husqavarna 324L
My stated above weedwhacker doesnt seem like its running properly. checked air filter, spark plug and checked idle speed.. everything is fine. When i full throttle it.. it slowly bogs down and dies.. when i get into some taller grass it slowly wants to die unless i back and give it a few throttle licks. its only like 2 years old and very well maintained

Have you tried a new spark plug? Did you get a bad batch of gas or gas that has been sitting awhile?

 

[TristanDickey]

removed spark plug and its almost brand new. just got the gas friday and it sat in the gas can until this morning. also same gas thats in my truck and no problems there.

Is exhaust spark arrestor screen plugged. That can cause loss of power and prevent engine from running at full throttle.

 

[TristanDickey]

thats the metal screen on the side of the exhaust right?

 

[oldnslo]

that is where most of them are. Some are internal in the muffler so harder to inspect and clean or remove.
