i had this same problem the little plastic part right past the carb was cracked. im trying to put it back together but i cant figure out which way the shroud around the plastic piece goes on. can you send pics
Hey Steve, quick question sir, i've got the same leaf blower but mine overheats,,, what could be causing that?
Next episode enjoy XX lager 🍺 ummm
Why in the heck did I not find this channel in the past several years, each time I searched small engine repair? You are THE BEST!!!! Thank you!!!!
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
My dad always enjoyed watching westerns, even if I don't have nothing to work on I enjoy watching your channel. Your always so clear on what you're explaining and very informative. Thanks for all the help you give us. Some people have no idea how to do anything like this, when you're done most likely they can fix it. Thanks for sharing your gift. my hat's off to you sir.
You're Welcome...and Thank You...
The one dislike on this video is from the guy who threw that leaf blower in the trash.
good one ......
LOL, Right on...
It's up to 19 now.
I actually don't understand why people would thumbs down a humanitarian?
Carrie Nation, and her followers.
He's been back 35 times as of today!
Steve, you saved the day! I was just about to toss my leaf blower in the garbage because it was running on full choke only. I followed all your instructions and how to adjust the carburetor and to my surprise its running like new again!!
Thanks for your help!!
Glad to help
I ran into a garage sale that guy was having same problem with same leaf blower he just gave it to me with the bag to hold leafs and all attachments that came with it when new he couldn't keep it running so I brought it home changed gas checked spark and changed fuel lines still did it I watched ur video and done same thing and now it's running great thanks it truly helped definitely worth a free leaf blower with all attachments and looking brand new thanks again
Right on
Hey Steve, I have been watching your videos and learning and learning. The carb tune up info has been just excellent. I have used versions of it with success on two or three of my little machines. My leaf blower has been bogging and surging and finally when I saw this video on the Ryobi, the light went on. Today I took a deep breath and took the carb off, removed the high and low screws and sprayed with carb cleaner, full flow into the venturi area. The diaphram seems stiff and stuck to the body, suspect it needs replacement. Not having a replacement yet I reassembled and after some screw adjustments, the little lady came back to life, started, good idle and good performance for about 15 minutes, then some surging again but was able to get some blowing done. I am trying to order parts......maybe a new diaphram will get me all the way back to success. Thank you Steve. Fred
Excellent diagnosis and repair. Thanks for sharing.
You're Welcome...
Literally just bought this same blower for $10 today. It’s got the same bog on the top end. I’ll check that high speed screw. Thanks man.
You're Welcome...
Neighbor gave me his old blower and bought new Stihl. He knows I get things going. Ryobi back pack blower would not go hi speed and would bog. Got a pac man adjusting driver and turned out 3/4 turn. Now running awesome.
Thanks Steve, for the confidence to “get into it”. Steve, Plymouth, MA
Right on Buddy!
Just watched about 6 of your videos and I got my craftsman leaf blower and ryobi weed eater running great, thank you
You're Welcome...
Thanks for the info ,my buddy gave this exact blower he pulled from someone’s trash that had the exact same bogging problem and your video helped me fix it by blowing out the main jet.Kudos to you Steve
Glad I could help
I’m one of those owners. Let see I have taken the carb off to clean it. I cleaned the fuel filter. So now I’m going to try this. I’m not giving up, yet.
Love the zero cost repairs the most. Great troubleshooting steps demonstrated. You are the best, my friend.
Thank You...
Seriously, I'm glad I found this channel while ownership of one of these blowers
You make it look so easy. I bought 2 ryobi’s. Weed eater. Broke within a year and a blower. Broke within 2 years. The blower will not start and if it does I can’t let the engine power down go or it will die. I may take a crack at fixing it with your videos. Great channel.
Right on
I was just about to go and get an battery operated blower and came across your video. I did exactly what you did and my blower runs better than it did when I purchased it. I'm now a subscriber. Thanks for the video.
Great job!
I have the same blower with the same symptoms. I'll check the carb now, thanks!
Stumbled upon your channel after my exact same blower started bogging upon acceleration. Gonna try this. ( I've had this blower for 21 years & it's super powerful, always ran great).
Good luck!
I've had this problem on several small engines, I'm so glad to finally know what to look for. ty
You're Welcome...
I just picked one of those up off the curb in my development. It does the same thing, it will stumble and fall flat when you squeeze the throttle trigger. I'm going to try this and see if it fixes the issue. If it does, it's a good score as it cost me nothing and I got the blower free!
Great vid. Reminds me of a freebee I was given.Roofer working next door tosses a small 110 V air compressor into the dumpster from the rooftop. I asked what the problem was. He said it just stopped and had been acting up. Time is money. Went to his PU and grabbed another compressor.Said I could have the old one.. I thought I might salvage a few parts. Put it on my workbench and started dismantalling, begining with the electric plug. Turns out one of the plug wires was broken . Rewired plug ..fired right up. Four years ago.. hasn't ever failed me. Sometimes a little tlc is all that's needed. Best to you and yours.
Then it rusts and explodes... Careful with old compressors
Vince King..Thanks for the info.
I just bought this same blower last night for $20 and it would only run on full choke. Got it running great. My little yellow screw driver broke on me a couple weeks ago. but I still use it. thanks for all you do for us.
You're Welcome...
Thanks Steve you have saved me so much aggravation by watching your video’s. I fix broken equipment on the side and your video’s make it allot easier if I have a problem.
Very glad I can help, my friend....
Helped me fix a Troy Bilt 2044xp that was giving me the same issue! Thanks for all you do, Steve!...
You're Welcome...
Well done! Motivated me to fix my dads Ryobi blower, starts but stalls, most probably same issue👍
Great tip Steve. I had just ordered a three Splined Drivers Set of different sizes to adjust the High and Low Speed RPMs on my leaf Blower on Ebay for under $8 with a Black Zipper Kit Pouch.
Awesome video. Love seeing your diagnostic steps and thinking on what was wrong, and I am really happy you showed the demo of the carb spray!. Thanks. Also love garbage items that a pro can bring back to life. Also you do a great bogging impression face! Keep up the great work.
Right on...
Awesome video Steve. You are right, Ryobi and garbage can go hand-in-hand, lol.
Thanks, a bazillion of us have Ryobi, McCulloch, and all the iterations of them.
Excellent!
Right on...
I have a homlite blower I bought at a yard sale. Oh it works great they say just out of gas.
wow...impressive. You are a teacher in your soul. Very well explained. I got one today and it doesn't start. I am going to fix it. Thanks a lot and let you know what happened. Thanks again!!
You're Welcome...
Thanks Steve you saved me money again. No one in South Jersey will fix HomeDepot purchased equipment so you either figure it out yourself or throw it away and buy another one which is wasteful. I love your channel and have told my neighbors to check it out
Thank You...
Funny. That's exactly where i got my Ryobi blower from lol.
EXCELLENT 2 cycle engine help.... extremely useful and well constructed videos
Thank You...
This is a great channel - Steve knows what he's talking about and is super fun to watch.
Thank You...
Steve I have the exact same Ryobi & has been put to the side bc it had the same suffering symptoms😵 Since then I p/u a Bauer cordless leaf blower. But now I'll be revisiting the Ryobi just to test my might in diagnose & repair!
It's not hard. And it's cheap if it doesn't work the only thing it will cost is a little time. Another thing to ck in screen in muffler and any opening done had a blower the other day and it had mud ber in muffler. And brew had another one like that.
Goin' junkin' now! Papa needs a leaf blower.
You rock, Steve.
Right on Joey....
THANKS FOR SHARING
Hey, Steve, thanks so much for posting this. My Ryobi blower had exactly the same boggy dying issue on the High Speed. After I had cleaned that then did not idle. So I had to do same clean on the Low Speed. Had to buy $7 carby cleaner. That's got this going. Getting the idle threads out was a hack with electronic long nosed pliers. Thanks man, all way from down under.
You're Welcome...
Dude, you are a fracking genius ! Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us !
You're Welcome...
Amen! What a nice thing to do!!! :)
Thanks for the video, my uncle also chunked his and I picked it up 🤣, tuned it up and it’s running nice now 👍🏾
That's awesome
Good diagnosis Steve and the process/logic you did it in was really helpful too. On another note, I can't decide which sound I enjoyed the most - the sound of that Sleeman's Honey Brown gurgling out of the bottle into your throat or the signature sound of the chainsaw on the start of your videos. Both sounds are/were pretty darn nice.
LOL, Right on...
Finally someone solved the problem of this rioby blowers problem
You nailed that one Steve mate and yep those Ryobi 26cc leaf blower/vacuum and who says they are duds when you can simply try this in the video too and cheers from Australia 🐨 🐑 🌴 🌏 or the land down under to your area and stay safe.
Thanks Mate!
Pure gold! Thank you!
You're Welcome...
Another great Vid. Really helpful I've just picked one of these up
Exactly what mine was doing. Thanks also this thing pissed me off so many times I almost threw it in the trash too so I’m not surprised that was were you found it. Haha
That was a GREAT video. Thank you for making everything look so easy! I love watching you and Taryl, VERY knowledgeable guys! Best to all. :)
Thanks so much!
Right on Steve, I have a bloere doing this exact thing, will check it out soon, thanks!
Good luck!
Dude, you rock. thanks for sharing your knowledge. You have been a blessing to many.
I appreciate that!
Great video. Got the special tool to adjust the carb and replaced the fuel filter. Fixed the issue with the blower stalling out when giving it gas.
Right on Tommy....
Great video, will try this on my Ryobi WP42 that does the exact same thing, AND BELONGS in a trash can. Tundra Tom
Thanks Steve !
Thank you so much for this video. I have the same 2 cycle Ryobi leaf blower and it kept bogging down, it got worse over time. I ordered the $11 carb adjuster set from Amazon and i was able to adjust it with the pacman size tip and it works like brand new again. It was a very easy fix after watching your instructions. Thanks.
You're Welcome...
Hi Steve thanks for the video - very helpful I had the same problem on my old ryobi rgbv3100.
Additionally had the impellor freely spinning which I was not sure if it was working correctly, running on a centrifical clutch or otherwise. That may be a good video for you to do replacing impellor. After trying to find some info on how the impellor worked or replacement parts I decided to disassemble - I found that the impellor nut hole had actually been worn out and was free spinning on the shaft bolt. For how long I don't know but the machine was still blowing air regardless.
The unit is so old I did this hack rather than buy replacement part - A pain here in France to find and at this stage was not confident the machine would run well anyway.
1. Clean impellor especially around nut cavity at back
2. Sand back rust on drive shaft bolt (you could even modify or notch this to give better interlock with epoxy repair below)
3. Run teflon plumbing tape around bolt - not thick just to stop epoxy from sticking permanently maybe 1 or 2 turns max.
4. Start to assemble all the parts to accept the impellor in its final position ie any guards / screws that cannot be accessed need to be tightened and in place before the impellor goes on.
5. Use kneadable 20minute epoxy and line the inner part of the impellor coupling where its worn out .Carefully put the impellor back in place and block the shaft with screw driver between pull stater and motor, start to tighten down on the impellor bolt without spinning the impellor and deplacing all your epoxy around the nut > as you tighten down the epoxy will be pushed out the back around the nut > you can start to really tighten up the bolt till the impellor is seated correctly
6. While epoxy is still soft get a knife or screwdriver and scrape the excess away from the back of the impellor without moving the impellor - very important you do not want to let the impellor spin on the shaft and ruin the repair. Let it dry for a few hours before running the machine.
PS I scratched my head working out the access for the high and low rev screws for the repair . They were the interlocking type with red low and white high plastic adjuster covers. To access I had remove/destroy the rubber spacer gromet at the base of the plastic frame to see how it functioned. After that chucked the plastic frame ,rubber and covers and I was left with two super long adjuster screws which I just rubber sheethed after cleaning the ports to keep dust out.
Brilliant Steve, we’ve all come across kit with the same symptoms - I for one will admit to having thrown an old but previously serviceable good hedge trimmer into the bin, I only wish I knew then what I know now after seeing this video.
Thanks so much 👏👌👍🍺
You're Welcome...
I was given one of these recently and tried everything but that guess what I’m going to go do now!
Good on ya Steve , I like your humor and the expression on your face when you tried it the first time , I, had a laugh . Keep up the good work , see ya later
Thank You...
That's awesome that's what this blower of mine was doing just before it stopped working all together. They say online to buy a whole new carburetor but I'm like screw that. There's no fun in buying a whole another carburetor when you can just learn to fix this carburetor. Yeah I also went out and bought a Troy-Bilt leaf blower after my Ryobi wouldn't start. I've had no problems with the Troy-Bilt and it's gone 5 years. The Ryobi lasted me 2 years before it clocked out so it's just been sitting in my pile of fix it for a while thank you so much for the video keep making more videos. I'm wondering if that trick would work on my echo weed eater 225 straight shaft bogs out like that Ryobi blower did for you
I have the same issue with my Southland blower.It won't rev high unless I turn the unit upside down! Not the best angle to hold it, and when I do, it smokes.It is several years old and I'll admit I haven't done dog doo to it. Your videos have helped me to raise 2 lawnmowers from the dead,so I'm going to tackle this blower next weekend (or maybe the one after that,lol.)
Good luck!
Update: The culprit was a split,leaky primer bulb.I was at the Spring Carlisle swap meet looking for car stuff,and a vendor had a few small engine repair parts.I bought 3 primer bulbs,some fuel line and a filter.Total investment $5.50.It revs and idles just fine!
Hey Steve, can I have my blower back? I set the blower NEXT to the garbage to go grab a beer… I came out and it was gone!
thanks bro, good video, I've always found these engines to be relatively durable if taken care of, but once found one that had the diaphragm backwards from the factory, I noticed that when I took the carb off to clean, turned it around and it ran as it should and like new.thanks again
You're Welcome...
Hey Steve love your videos man you give me inspiration found it on the side the road free pile Ryobi gas blower I use your method that you showed in this video works perfectly thank you so much hope all is safe up there in Canada
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
Great info, I like what you do. Thanks
You're Welcome...
Thank you steve. Great help again
Any time!
Nice Steve! !! Cheers.👍
Thank You...
Good work 👍
Steve you did it again for me .All of ur videos are great I would like to purchase a T from you thanks again day save
Very helpful video,thanks for sharing
You're Welcome...
After collecting enough two stroke devices, I eventually bought a tuning wand kit on the 'bay, I think it contains drivers for about a dozen different types of mixture screws. One of the better investments I made. I also have the 200mph version blower like this. After cleaning the carb, replacing the lines and adjustment, it's been an excellent unit for my needs. One of the best features, is it puts the exhaust into the blower tube and out the front, instead of back at the operator like my spare McCulloch unit, a big plus for me.
Hi Steve . Enjoyed your video, I once found a honda self propelled mower in the tash 60 dollars later back togerher , the guy that owned it now pays 70 dollars every 2 weeks to mows his yard ? . Cheers from Australia Mick.
Thanks I've had that problem before
You're Welcome...
Loooove your videos, has help my small motor skills explode in positive ways!
Awesome! Thank you!
did what he said and it works great after adjusted the carb, thanks Steve
this was on a ryobi
Great to hear!
Hey Steve I have a Ryobi just like that one it was a give me, similar problem and when you shared the info on the bogging down blew my mind but I totally forgot that. I love watching your videos pretty cool that you got that going on always look for your videos when a problem going to small engine repair thanks again
You're Welcome...
Thanks for the Info. Very nice.
My pleasure!
You saved my ass, thank you. I actually have the exact same leaf blower and same issue. I learned something new today!
You're Welcome...
great videos and knowledge , keep them coming, thanks
You're Welcome...
This really helped me out!!! Thank you sir!!!!
You're welcome!
Sweet! A neighbor just gave me a model RYO9550. Took gas cap off and the fuel pick up line was just laying broken off in the gas tank. Spark Plug looks good and feels like it has compression. Hope its a cheap fix
Thanks Steve good video
You're Welcome...
Thumbs up Steve l learn something new every time l watch one of your videos thanks for sharing.
You're Welcome...
Great video Thanks Steve
You're Welcome...
Thanks Steve!!
You're Welcome...
Hi Steve, I'm your new sub 😃
Fixing these small machines weren't just saving the $$$ but it gave us satisfaction as well 👍
Awesome! Thank you!
Thanks! Fixed mine.. probably would have fixed the Poulan it replaced 2 years ago that I threw away.. :(
Well it ended up just costing your time and a little bit of carb spray. I love your videos. I spent a bit of time last year trying to get some yard equipment working again. I actually have the bigger ryobi backpack blower and it was doing the same bogging down. Not exactly sure the problem, but it was something with the carburetor ended up just replacing and tuned up the blower as a new carb was cheap and it runs like a dream now. I like this diagnosis of how to fix a small carburetor and may try to see if something is clogged up or if the diafram is bad on the old one so I can just swap it out if the current carb ever has an issue. Keep posting my friend.
Right on Zach!
I got a bolens leave blower that does same thing , when u squeeze the trigger . I cleaned carb up and gas still have the problem now after watching ur video on the high speed needle I’m gonna clean that up
It's a good video great tip .that just shows how dumb a lot of people is . Throwing away a good machine that just needs a little TLC. Clean carburetor jet and flesh gas . You.should be able to sell it for at least 65 bucks to 70 . You need to find more machine like that that you can fix for little or no parts. It will help. On beer money.
Great video....these ryobis work...you may have to do a thorough cleaning of the carb from time to time but they work....starting instructions are as goofy as my Weber grill...that's another story.
I have used a piece of florist wire for that same type of repair... Thank you for showing how to fix cheap tools, and not being another how to channel that only talks about how to buy cheap tools
You're Welcome...
Worked for me, thanks!
You're Welcome...
Subscribed! Awesome! Thanks Steve! I have the exact same issue with this same model!
