Kawasaki KHT750 HedgeTrimmer
I'm new to this forum. Not a mechanic by any means. However, I've learned I can usually repair my own gas lawn equipment if I just do a little research and try to do it myself. Have generally been successful but this Hedge trimmer has me stumped. The problem: It starts easily and will idle forever but as I slowly give it gas the engine speeds up (as it should) but very shortly as you continue to increase the gas the engine begins to loose power and will completely stall if you gun it. Once the engine has run for a good while and is nice and hot it will become easier and easier for it to stall as you start to give it gas. I've replaced fuel filter, fuel lines, took the carb apart and cleaned it. Took the spark arrester off (it was completely clogged) and cleaned it along with the air filter. Tested the resistance of the ignition coil assembly; 9.8 is pretty much ok I think. After all this it brings me back to thinking something is up with the carburetor again. Does anyone have any ideas. I bought this trimmer used last summer and would really like to get it up to speed (as it were). Thank you to anyone who can provide any assistance.
