Run a little seafoam through it... if that doesn't help, I would almost bet the fuel lines have cracks in them. Lousy gas is hard on rubber lines.
Runs better when choke is half on

Took the Husqvarna trimmer apart an hour ago. I found nothing that needed tightening. The machine looks almost new. I added some straight gas to the mixed to thin it down a bit......... along with some seafoam as suggested.
It does indeed run better with the choke half on as described by the wife. And I noted that while at idle ......... and I pull the choke lever ....... it acts almost as a throttle control. The machine revs up ........ I guess I'll need to tear it down again.

+3 on junk in carb. take it apart and blow it out and reassemble. check diaphragm for pin holes and fuel lines/primer bulb are ok. Lastly check routing of fuel lines. Improper routing can also cause symptoms described. Don't ask me how I know:ashamed:
