I have an 8 or so year old Shindawa two stroke gas leaf blower that is hard starting and I don't know where to look. This started late last summer so I replaced the plug with the same kind. It still starts hard, especially when it's cold. Where it used to start on the second pull, it now takes five or six pulls and if it's maybe in the 50's it might take 10 or 12 pulls.
I almost always have used no-ethanol gas, always good two stroke oil and am machinery savvy. It gets run out of fuel before storage. I don't use this much so that's the extent of what I have done. I have had Shindawa products in the past and never any issue. Any advice where to look or what to try would be appreciated. If a model number or pics would be helpful I can do that.
