SOURCE: my new blower just won

When did you purchase it? If it is under a certain number of days, you may be able to return it. Other wise you will have to find a warranty repair center for that blower and get them to look at it under warranty. Make sure you have a copy of your receipt when you take it in to the shop. ** But make sure the shop does not get a diagnostic fee or handling fee because they are getting paid by the warranty company.** You should not have to pay a dime if it is under warranty.
Good Day.

SOURCE: can't start poulan ppbp 30 cc gas blower

At all? Check the plug to see if it's wet. If so you are getting fuel so problem is spark. Get a new plug and gap properly. What else have you tried?

My three wheeler doesn't stay running when it starts. What could be the problem besides the fuel line . just added a fuel filter on it but she still won't start or stay running at times. Co

The damage is already done before you put the fuel filter in. (dirt in Carb)
Remove your carb and dissesemble it and clean everything out and then put back on the machine with FRESH gas and you will be fine...run like a top !

Hello, I have a Amana Air Command 80 model #GHI90A50, 22 years old. This furnace is on its third ingnition module (last one two yeras ago). The symptom I am trying to diagnose has been ongioing since this...

If your furnace lights and the gas stays on for 8 to 10 seconds, then shuts right back off, then you need to clean your flame sensor with light sand paper or steel wool. You might need a new flame sensor, but most of the time they can be cleaned an will work well after cleaning.

The heat turns off after 3 seconds of flame.

There is a flame sensor failure.

Here is the ignition sequence for a furnace. This will help you understand what is happening/not happening.

Thermostat2.gif calls for heat.

draft inducer motor (DIM) starts drawing draft through heat exchanger.

Pressure switch detects proper operation of DIM, and sends signal to board to begin ignition.
(it detects negative pressure)

Ignitor starts ignition attempt and gas valve sends gas to burners.

Upon ignition, flame sensor detects flame and sends signal to board stopping ignition sequence and continuing gas flow for heat mode operation until thermostat is satisfied.

During this sequence the blower motor is brought on, and by using a series of temperature limit switches, the system assures that the unit is operating properly.
(If the blower is not operating, or the airflow is inadequate, the heat exchanger will overheat and trip one or more temp limit switches.)

There is also a "rollout" switch that detects improper flame pattern "rolling out" into the controls compartment.

Now, to apply that to your situation.

If the flame sensor does not sense flame, it shuts down the furnace to prevent a dangerouse gas build up.

With most modern glow coil ignition systems you have one of two failures.

1) the flame sensor is bad and needs to be replaced.

2) the control board is not proccesing the signal from the flame sensor and shuts the system down. In that case the board would need to be replaced.

There is a possibility that a temperature limit or roll out switch is breaking the curcuit, but that would be quite unusual to happen consistantly at three seconds.

Unless you have the ability and tools to test the snesor and board, the next step would be to replace the sensor first, and then the board if that does not fix it.

Compressor runs 45 seconds off for 2 minutes cycles like this no voltage change

In order to accurately determine and diagnose the problem, a more detailed description of the problem needs to be communicated as opposed to normal operation of the system so a repair person can determine that there is in fact a problem. There's a big difference between solving a problem via text as opposed to seeing what is wrong in the field. They rarely are the same.

Goodman condenser sequence of operation on a matched system. Call for cool, condenser starts, 15-30 seconds later blower motor starts, cool satisfied, condenser shuts down, 15-45 seconds later blower motor shuts down. House heats ups and a call for cool via the thermostat starts another cycle.

Based on normal operation it is impossible to determine whats wrong with the information given. There are perhaps 5 voltage measurements in the system that you could be referring to.
