Good to hear, thanks. As I added in a further post, I can get it up and running on a cold start and use it full power so maybe there’s hope.

Thank you

Sounds like you need a hobby to me? Instead of spending your time on here honing your edgy comedian act of being a prat and then when someone calls you out as such going “ohhh can’t say anything anymore snowflakes etc”

2020 model. Seems to have had an easy life with an old boy who hardly used it, until I got my hands on it! Thanks but I can’t think the recoil would be a problem compared to me putting the wrong fuel in?

Yes! just in case you didn’t see my last addition - yes if I start it from cold and run it full throttle it feels absolutely fine, doesn’t struggle for power. I can use it for 10-20 minutes like that on and off full revs but as soon as it idles it dies and I can’t restart.

Thank you for this. You may as well be speaking another language with the amount of terminology I understand, but I will research what you wrote and see if I can have a go. Thanks again

Thank you for all the replies everyone, I’ve only just seen them. (Yes, apart from the bloke that thought it was funny to call me a dick. What top banter) I feel a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach every I remember what I did to that lovely machine don’t worry! I have a lot on and am not knowledgeable about machinery so literally just googled the machine, saw the number “4” and off I went. I tried it the other day, ran it full out for 15 minutes, let it idle and it was ticking over fine, didn’t cut our, I switched it off, restarted and run a bit more, etc etc for ages and I was thinking bloody hell I’ve got away with it. Fast forward to today it’s back to square one, starts ok, seems to be running at full power, but as soon as I let it idle it dies and then I can’t restart again for ages. someone on YouTube says I’ve probably caused irreparable damage with running it with no oil. The only saving grace is that it cost me £350 used not £700 new. But I do need it for my job so I’m now possibly going to have to buy a new one so I’ll be down almost £1k at that point. I will go though the replies now and see if there is anything I can manage to do….First thing google what “compression” is. Thanks again for taking the time and any more advice would of course be warmly received.

Hi all, I’ve been a complete idiot and put Aspen 4 in my (newly bought used but relatively new) BR800C blower. It ran fine for 45 mins. Then a week later I realised how stupid I’d been and that it’s 4-MIX and 2 STROKE! drained tank, replaced with Aspen 2. It ran for 10 mins then died. Now I can’t restart. The irony of all this being that I used aspen to hopefully look after the engine. Have I completely ruined the engine or is there any way back for me to fix my mistake? Thank you so much in advance for any help.
