If your handheld or backpack blower isn’t moving air like it should, watch for:
Hard starting — needs many pulls, only starts on choke, or won’t restart hot
Bogging or stalling — revs in the air but dies when you squeeze the throttle or under load
Weak airflow — noticeably less CFM/MPH, debris won’t move like it used to
Surging or hunting at idle — RPMs rise and fall on their own (often fuel/air issue)
Excessive vibration — loose fan/impeller, damaged mounts, or debris packed in the housing
Rattling or grinding noises — cracked fan, bearing wear, or loose fasteners
Overheating or hot smell — clogged cooling fins, blocked exhaust, or lean carb settings
Fuel leaks or strong fuel odor — brittle fuel lines, bad primer bulb, or tank grommet leak
Oil residue on 4-MIX engines — breather or valve-train service needed (STIHL 4-MIX)
Throttle problems — slow response, sticking trigger, or won’t reach full RPM
Starts but won’t stay running without choke — dirty carb or air leak
Electrical/battery issues (cordless models) — short run time, won’t charge, intermittent power
Addressing these issues early can prevent bigger repairs, save money, and keep your equipment running when you need it most.
If any of these sound familiar, it’s time for a tune-up or repair. Addressing problems early can prevent costly breakdowns and extend the life of your leaf blower.
