Stihl bg55 blower wont run

[Welderman85]

My older neighbor brought his stihl bg55 blower over for me to look at. He said it bodlgs while running and wont hit full throttle. We'll i cant get it to do anything. I cleaned the carb then just replaced it because it was still flooding. New plug and checked for spark and still nothing not even a pop. Any ideas

Good compression? Check to see if muffler is plugged up?

Muffler screens commonly plug up with carbon on these, especially if they are constantly goosing the trigger, revving them up and down and dumping unburned fuel into the muffler. Vroom vroom vroom. Pull the screen and clean it with a propane torch. If that doesn't work pull the muffler and check the piston for scoring.
