Dunno but sounds like you,d have been better off sticking to pump fuel

[Mark_Skyland]

Which model of hedge cutter and blower do you have?

 

Do they run fine if you switch back to pump fuel?

I bought a husky 525 hand held blower was going to run it on aspen and it just didn’t like it. Sent back for a retune was never right. Back on pump fuel ran really well.

Been running aspen and stihl motomix for 3-4 years now on all my saws.
Never had a problem.
I buy motomix in 55 litre drums
as we burn through it.
Would never go back to pump fuel.

If you're using the same can on both those engines then something has happened. @Aspen@AAOILwill advise but if it is a dodgy batch don't throw it away so they can investigate.

By all means go back to pump fuel, its a viable alternative to Aspen but does need better 'fuel management', something easily achieved by using common sense.
That said, your machines are both quite capable of being run on Aspen once the problems with the machines have been identified and sorted. The problems will without doubt lie with the machine rather than the fuel and it would be rather nice to get to the bottom of this.

Whereabouts in the country are you?

He said new machine so should be nothing wrong if when he bought it was ran up on aspen when tuned up at shop, but maybe it wasn't.
