Mccullough petrol blower?

It was stored over winter. Started when filled and no problem. now for some reason it starts ok then just cuts out. any ideas on what to do?

There could be several answers to this question. A motor needs spark and fuel to run. Try these things.. Make sure that the fuel you added was properly mixed with 2 cycle oil at the correct ratio. Make sure that you are adjusting the choke after the 1st few seconds as it warms up. The blower apparently has spark, so make sure that you do not have a pinched or clogged fuel line.
