Did you replace the fuel line inside the tank that goes to the stone filter? My weed wacker's fuel line in the tank dissolved and was sucking air before it left the tank.

Man
Just put that thing in a box and send it to D'Animal so he can toss that turd out and you can buy a new one
What solvent did you use to clean the carb?

I'll probably buy a Stihl anyway just to keep D' employed, but I ain't quitting just yet on that Craftsman sucker....
Walbro and Zama build carburetors for most all handheld equipment.
I doubt the carburetor is the problem. If the secondary strainer screen is clean and you did not touch anything else, that would have backed up my theory.
You more than likely screwed up you carburetor if you used a dip tank. The check valve in the main nozzle is probably destroyed.
Dont worry
I just screwed up my chainsaw after I sharpening then I thought I clean it up , well now it wont run so thanks for the bad VooDoo e9999
The height of the inlet needle lever is pretty critical.
Any trick to putting that sucker in without sproinging the spring across the garage (besides doing it in a bag)? Maybe glue the spring to the lever?
Interestingly, when I was running the at full throttle without air filter I could see some slight fine spraying of gas coming out of the carb throat towards the outside. Is that normal?
No real trick. Put the spring in the bore. Install the inlet needle. Hook the "U" end of the lever into the inlet needle. Center the spring in the dimple of the lever. Push the lever down and install the screw.
Took longer to write it than it does to do it.
That is called spitback. Some of it is normal on all natually aspirated engines.
A lot of it can mean you ahve a plugged spark arrestor, carboned up exhaust port or you have low compression do to rings being worn out.
