FL25C Runs just for 5 Minutes

From: Scott M.

There is something wrong with your featherlite. The thing wont stay running it takes 15 min’s to even get the thing started and when it starts going it only runs for 5 to 10 min’s then it shuts off and has a real bad smell coming out of it, something is wrong with it. I bought it at Walmart 2 months ago and I just started using it a week ago and It has been a pain in the ass. I’ve always had a featherlite the last one I had lasted for 4 years and this one is not even running.

Scott,
if you still have warranty papers, why don’t you return it to get a new model? The most common problem when starting is stalling due to flooding the carburetor with fuel. A proper carburetor adjustment will make it run fine.
