I have a Ryobi S430 4 stroke Weed Eater Trimmer. How many times do i pump the choke (primer) to start cold?

chokes are an obstruction placed over the inlet to increase the vacuum in the carby and cannot be pressed Primer bulbs are used to suck fuel through the diaphragms to expell all of the air in the system to allow starting normally press the primer bulb until it is full of fuel apply the choke and pull until it fires remove the choke and at full throttle pull until it starts

I have a 30cc ryobi trimmer that will start but not run unless the choke is fully on. The moment I use the throttle or turn off the choke ,it dies. what could be the problem? thanks.

Hi Guy: The first thing I would check would be the fuel filter. Try pulling it out and giving it a really good clean. Probably a good idea to put fresh gas in at the same time if it's been sitting for a while.

Starts and ticks over but stalls on opening throttle.

Turn your low side adjustment out 1/4 - 1/2 turn.

My ryobi bc30 starts but will not stay running. I only see one screw for the carb but it dont seem like it adjusts anything. I have turned the screw all the way in and out doesnt fix anything. i do

It's not carb or gas. You need the PacMan adjusting tool to adjust air intake, sold only to dealers. I found mine on Amazon for $10, followed directions and now my SS30 runs like new.

Ryobi RCB30SESA will not start

You could possibly have either of several problems here. You need to check one out at a time. It's possibly a weak ignition coil or the leg gap isn't correct. It's also a possibility that you have a fuel delivery issue and that can be caused by a air leak around the carburetor or the crank case housing seals.

I have a Red Max HBZ2600 Z Power blower that starts runs a few minutes then slowly dies. Fixable?

Install a new spark plug Clean or replace the air filter Use only gas that is no more than 2 months old & add fuel conditioner such as Sta-Bil or B&S, unless you have to mix fuel for a 2 cycle motor Once running & fully warm,adjust carb screws for fuel mix at idle & fast rpm, then set the idle Check for spark with a small engine tool avail for that It looks like a spark plug with a clip on it & avail many places May have to remove the carb,clean it & install a new kit,if you still have problems

Why will trimmer only run with fullchoke

It obviously sucking air from another area. Check the gasket at the back of the carburetor and see if it's cracked or not. If it's good then you'll probably have to do a complete carburetor screw adjustment on it. I just posted how to do that with another guys issue.

Weed easter just stopped running and will not start. Was doing great, has gas, plug loks ok--need help?

Weed EASTER? Plug LOKS? Need help spelling! First off, if the gas/oil combo is aged, that can cause problems. Use fresh fuel. Second, Steven; check for Water in the fuel or dirt in the lines. You may have to disassemble the entire head and clean the parts. You may need a new Seal to prevent oil/gas leaks, so be prepared.

Many times often than not, your clunk connected to the fuel line in the tank has fallen off. Buy some new fuel line and replace the old one and it will be OK for a long time. Good Luck.....
