Question
mcculloch 1385J weedeater, starts but fuel is sprayed out of the carb and muffler
Hello Ron:
For this Brand of Equipment I require the Serial Numbers Also to Look up the Equipment in the Manual. However, It sounds like the Carburator May be Set too Rich. I would Like to Look it up in the Manual and Check the Diagonistics Section to be Sure. It Could Also be Worn Rings. Thanks.
Respectfully
John
