Hello new to the forum and was wondering if anyone could figure out a problem I'm having. I have an older little wonder 8hp leaf blower that when ever I lean it back it bogs down and almost stalls? Going through it getting prepared for fall went to clean the carb but the long jet had been stripped from previous owner so I ordered a new carb figured with the time it was sitting it couldn't hurt. So I installed and adjusted the new carb idles perfect and top speed perfect at first it seemed to only bog when I got under about half tank of fuel, so I removed the tank and pet cok and cleaned the best I could with no resolve. So then I removed the 5/16 fuel line and installed a 3/8" thinking maybe it would help but now it seems to do it even with a full tank of gas. I even thought maybe the vented cap wasn't working but it still does it with the cap off. Oil level is full even though there's no low oil switch, I even removed the ground wire for the kill thinking maybe it was contacting intermittently but again still bogging down... So many leaves hope someone has run into this... Thanks for any and all help!
