Default RE: Ryobi 31 cc dying after 12 minute run

Well, problem fixed! The only bad thing is that I'm not sure exactly what the problem was. To make a long story short, I got really P***** off, robbed a carb off my weed eater, installed it, and now she runs great again. I swapped back to the original carb that was malfuntioning and once again, when she heated up, she would die just like before. Swapped back to the weed eater carb and ran 3 tanks of fuel without so much as a gurgle. Yes, this is all that I have been doing since this afternoon! The new carb stays since I don't need my weed eater very often. I have taken apart the screwed up carb and still can't find anything wrong with it. I am going to buy a rebuild kit for it and try it again in the future but it will probably be put onto the weedeater. I'm going FLYING!!! Thanks everybody for all the input and when I actually find out exactly what went wrong with the carb, I'll let it be known. Todd
