Craftsman Blower 31679461 2012: Installed Two New Carbs and the Blower Won't Stay Running

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 13:35:20 -0700

I have never run into this before - I cleaned the carburetor and that didn't work so I ordered a new one and installed it. It started but would not rev up or stay running. Like it was starving for gas. I thought the carburetor was faulty so I ordered a replacement and installed it but had the same outcome. I have installed new gas lines, new gas filter, new air filter, new spark plug and new gasket. I'm stumped. And I did check to make sure I had the the two gas lines on correctly. When I pump the primer bulb, gas comes up and the return goes back to the tank. I know it's old but it ran great until a week ago after adding gas stabilizer. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Bill

I'm curious why the length of time is growing longer and longer before it will restart. The charge is full and the have several batteries ready to go. What part needs to be replaced and where can I find it? It doesn't appear to have a brush that has worn down so is it the entire motor?

Leaf Blower: Can I find a replacement motor for this?

Tue, 01 Jul 2025 17:11:03 -0700

I have a Lynxx 62384 40V leaf blower (Harbor Freight), only a few hours on it, and the motor (see picture) seized. There is a number printed on the motor housing which apparently means nothing on the internet so I'm wondering if anyone knows if this motor can be replaced. I think Ryobi motors may be similar but I can't find a picture to compare.

It was a great power tool when I got it. Very powerful. It still starts fine and runs very well for all of 1 to 2 minutes and then bogs down and dies. Frustrating because it always starts.

Makita Blower RBL250 2010: Motor not running without choke being on

Fri, 06 Sep 2024 20:36:12 -0700

This is not a question, but repair tip. These blowers are good kit, Dolmar German made, branded to Makita after they purchased the company. They are out of production, so parts not easy. Seems the issue I had is not uncommon. To fix, remove the carb, (easy), take the choke shroud of clipped at bottom, undo the two screws that u can now see, pull carb back a little flick off the fuel hoses - plastic carb outlet to tank, brass carb outlet to primer bulb, remove cable retainer (plastic larger dia 2 or 3 mm pipe section) slip cable out, remove carb fully, undo the four fuel pump screws, carefully ease the two unscrewed parts away from the carb gaskets - carefully no stock of these.

Blow out the various holes u see, no need to take out the needle valve, but blow it out, use a thin tin wire to flick out main jet rubber or compressed air from the needle valve side of the housing, carefully as the rubber is small - its a round pc about 2 or 3 dia, clean the jet part with a round wire brush by hand, blow it out, push jet rubber back in, go to the carb body, run a wire brush wire (single pc) into the jet brass upper part, then blow it out.

Check the manifold for flatness, mine was out of true, run it up and down a file until flat again both ends, seal the original gasket as not available new, reassemble and presto.

Hope this helps someone !!! Arty
