I have an echo model 2100 power blower 7 years old. It has been excellent up to now. It will not power up. It feels as though it is starved for fuel but idles great and runs fine only at low speeds. Feels as though it has choke on when trying to increase power. Have cleaned spark screen, new plug, new fuel filter, and new air filter. Am I looking at carberator $$$$$ problems and if so is it worth getting fixed? Thank you very much.
Have you tried to adjust the carb? screw all screws all the way in , then back out 1-1/2 turns then try to start it and tell me what happpens in detail, thanks.

You can take a spark plug tester and plug one end into the spark plug wire and the place the other end on the spark plug and pull the starter rope and see if there is a spark present. Hope this helps.
The primer bulb pulls fuel from the carb into the bulb and dumps back to the tank, so either the tubes are not connected too the correct conections on the carb, or there is bno fuel getting to the carb from the tank ( fuel filter ) or if the primer is on the carb itself there in a red one way valve under the bulb which maybe faulty.
I just fixed my Echo PB 2100 with the same issue. It would start, run, all throttle openings OK but would not rev-up. It was a dirty/clogged screen on the muffler. Scraped the thick tar off then used Lacquer Thinner to soak it clean. Blower works better than ever now....
