Poulan backpack blower ppbp30 wont start. Got air, got spark, primer works. It will cough and run with the prime but wont start. Removed and cleaned carb; it was spotless internally. Thinking diaphragm a little stiff so could prolly use rebuild kit. Rebuild kit costs same as new AM carb. Cleaned fuel filter and even tried without filter. Even replaced seemingly squishy fuel line that really wasnt soft. Couldnt check compression with gauge cause plug is small and i have no adapter. Checked it with my thumb over spark plug hole and did feel some compression. Unfortunately i havent had my thumb calibrated in a while.
Seen where others have used AM with good results. Getting to be leaf blowing season soon.
Posted this in two other places on ope but got no responses so decided to try my home boys.
Any comments or recommendations
