| Does a great job- some tips on starting |
| By Ray from (Riverside, IL) |
After a year the piston ring seized in the piston. It was repaired under warranty, and I was told by the tech not to use 40-1 mixture, use 30-1 or richer.
Except for that, it does a great job.
As for starting cold, push prime button 5 times, lever on choke & short pull while holding in trigger. Switch to mid position, hold in trigger and fully pull cord. Run for 30 seconds in that position, then switch to run. Works every time.
Be sure to keep stabilizer in your fuel. |

| Gas Blower lasted only one year |
| By Wilson from (St Charles, IL) |
I purchased this blower 1 year ago and it quit working. I paid $99 dollars for this at a Big Box store.
I got exactly what I paid for.
A few people at Poulan should get fired over this piece of junk. |

| WON'T START & EVEN WORSE- IT'S BRAND NEW |
| By TINA from (Brick, NJ) |
I have exchanged this product at the store 3 times. This time I took it out of the box, followed the directions to a "T", and it doesn't start.
I'm surprised there is no recall on this product. Terrible!!
I will never purchase a Poulan product again. |

| It blows, if ya can keep it running |
| By Jack from (Upstate, NY) |
I bought the Poulan blower Vac last year, and almost immediately had trouble. It started hard, then would bog down, needing partial choke to stay alive...
A local shop adjusted the carb and it ran fair, but gurgled, then it wouldn't start. Today I fought with it for 3 hours to do an hour's work, then wrapped it around a tree in the yard and went and bought a 28CC Husqvarna that is lighter, quieter, started on the first pull and runs fine so far.
Save yourself the hassle, pony up the extra $ and buy a Husqvarna the first time- I wish I had. |

I have had this blower for about 18 months, and ran it about 30 - 45 minutes a week.
It started to lose power and knock, and was hard to start. When I took it apart, I found the ring was seized to the piston.
By the way - I have several other 2-cycle devices using the same gas and they are all fine.
