If the carburetor is not fouled and adjusted properly then likely there's a crankcase leak.

Try increasing idle fuel mix in eight turn increments and see if it improves.

To diagnose leak search "2 cycle crankcase leak"

SOURCE: Homelite leaf blower bogs down.

I don't mean to over simplify this, but are you using fresh gas? Gas blowers are extremely ticky when it comes to gas. They like it SUPER fresh. And while the gas and oil mixture should be right, it can be off a little bit and still run. Try draining all of the gas out, and then filling up with fresh mix. This is ALWAYS my first step with gas blowers, and it fixes the problem 75% of the time. Also make sure your spark plug is clean. If you are not sure, a new plug couldn't hurt.
Hope this helps!!

SOURCE: PB620 Echo Blower will not stay running

check and see if the muffler is plugged and it can't get rid if it's exhaust.

SOURCE: echo gas leaf blower bog down

Likely dirt in high speed needle valve(H); could be leaky fuel line(air leaking in), plugged fuel filter, pinched fuel line, etc - anything restricting flow of fuel. Likely, you aggravated an existing problem by cleaning the air filter which would have been providing some choke effect if it were partially plugged.

SOURCE: bogs down at full thouldel tryed to adjust carberator

Hi
This is either a clogged muffler or carb. Take the off and see if it will rev. If not you need to clean carb and install a carb repair kit. Do not run long with muffler off.

I have a echo PB 500T backpack blower I can get it to run great for 20 to 30 minutes but then it bogs down and quits it won't restart unless I pour gas into the cylinder runs a while and boys down

Could be fuel tank not venting properly. Run until the symptoms repeat then loosen fuel cap. If it starts and runs ok then likely the vent (cap?) Is plugged.

Otherwise it's likely a crankcase leak.

Echo leaf blower..cranks fine, idles fine, will not throttle up.

Sounds like restricted exaust. Remove the muffler and start it, see if that fixes it. If yes clean remaining carbon from exaust port. And clean spark arestor screen.
