Thank you. I have that exact blower. I bought the kit from Hipa, about 2 yrs ago. But I haven't put it on yet because I developed a disability that keeps me from working on small engines anymore. I hate that because I enjoyed it so much. Did it just as a hobby, for my church, friends, and my own equipment. Inherited my mechanical ability from my dad. My blower is very hard to start, and won't stay running unless I vent the gas tank by opening the cap. I am pretty sure the tank vent line is clogged.
Sorry to hear you are not able to work on small engines anymore. Hopefully, my videos put you back in the zone. Thanks for watching.
Excellent instruction on carb replacement. I am ordering parts to do it on three Echo units,
Nice video Bob, I've used numerous HiPA carbs and kits, I've never had a problem with one yet. 👍
That is really good John, I have only used a few Hipa's but have had good luck as well. I have used other aftermarket carbs and have had problems.
Thanks, I know what you mean about some of those others..... I learned the hard way.
Me too brother 😊
I picked up one of those spark Check'r through Walmart a few years ago for 34 bucks, great price for an awesome device, I love it when you can't see a regular spark checker, it keeps flashing so you can walk around to see, really cool. A must for any small engine mechanic. Sadly Walmart is out of stock.
Thanks Bob I'm familiar with Hipa used a couple of kits and they worked well for me.. Nice review !!
Thanks for watching!
Great video. I just ordered the kit for myPB250. It arrives tomorrow.
Did you get it, did it work well?
Thank you Bob, I'm going to give them a try for my chain saw
I have a stihl chainsaw ms170 that I might give a shot.
I had luck with hipa products they sent me also with no issues 👍
I have used a couple of hipa carbs in the past when I needed to replace on and have had good luck with them.
Thanks for your support. If you need any carbs or other small engine parts recently. Check the $9.90 deal in the description and it's a good chance to save money on repair.
Great show brother 👏
Good deal on a carb!👍
I think so too!
I've had pretty good luck with hipa carbs so far. Waiting on a dual fuel one for a generator, should be here soon.
Yep Hipi does have good carb and I’ve been using them
Thanks for your support Philip. We just launched a 9.90 deal recently on our website and I hope this information will be helpful. Link is in the video description.
Awesome Job Bob Thanks ! 👍
You are very welcome
Thank you for the video
I’ve rehabbed two PB-250’s (one a PB-250LN). Excellent blowers, I’d pick up another one if I could get a good price on one.
Nice Bob, I should contact HIPA, they keep emailing me lol!
Yo yo me old mucker.. good video.. I have a carb here for a Honda I have to fit this week.. hope all is good mate
Doing well buddy boy!
Things are just starting to hop here with Spring coming in hot!
I'm surprised that this kit fit this Echo blower so well. What other kits does this company offer?🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤷🏿♂️
Follow the links and you can see them all.
Hipa and double wide 6 to the rescue 😅
Hey Robert, thanks for checking this out. Get ready Spring is coming!
@@doublewide6 Yeah buddy😎😎
Puppy pads work good under equipment your working on
I had the one there to prevent glare from the workbench.
As for hipa360, a few people I know have had issues, like a carb bowl nut not being drilled out properly, I myself they sent me a carb for a briggs for review, and in my review I called them out for bad stuff, they got mad at me, but so be it, you can't sell stuff that doesn't work, and expect me to give it a good review, they need to step up their quality control, so pieces like the one I reviewed don't get out into circulation.
On those four cycle carbs it’s important to open the carb and clean any debris metal shavings that are inside the bowl. Poor quality control is the reason for this weather the carb is aftermarket or OEM.
How do I get a hold of Terry laronda to get a blade balancer
We know we can probably buy kit for the original carburetor, but can we buy a kit for the HIPA carburetor? Don't get me wrong, I think this is an incredible deal! I'm just suggesting that possibly we should keep the original carburetor for a possible future repair should we have it that long. Whoops, my hoarder personality may be showing
DW6, have you ever used K100 as a fuel additive? Gets rid of water, great stuff! Thanks for the vid! 👍👍
I have but I can't say for sure that it works any better than anything else.
Teryl says its snake oil
Just a short comment. I would consider informing your viewers to try use ethanol free gasoline. Most areas that carry it here in MI call it 'Rec' gas. It is usually 89 or 90 octane. Do not miss understand, it is NOT about the octane amount rather it is about not running gas with ethanol in all your gas powered lawn and garden equipment, i.e. lawn mowers, lawn tractors, line trimmers, leaf blowers, chain saws, power washers, portable generators, etc. It is the ethanol that messes these carbs, fuel lines, grommets, etc. Use ethanol free gas with some stabilizer added. With the four strokers, if the unit has a fuel shut off valve, turn off the gas and run it till it runs out fuel. Keep that gas out of the carb if it sets around for too long.
Can't get it in most places (like my Area) and canned man made fuel is too pricey. Canned fuel is also very unreliable due to some batches having more octane than other batches. Some equipment run like poo on it
Good advice I always run non ethanol in all my small equipment
We have non ethanol fuel locally, the trick is to empty out the fuel at the end of the season. I empty them usually and let the tank dry with the cap off. After they dry out in a few days a cap them to keep out the dust.
Not a fan of the canned fuels. As a homeowner I recommend battery powered tools to most my customers. Milwaukee makes a good chainsaw, and leaf blower easy to do if they already have a brands battery packs at home.
@@doublewide6 I've always used canned fuel in mine never had a problem but I'm also not a fan of battery powered equipment I prefer gas powered guess I'm old school
Off topic question: I’ve seen you use a Sure Shot sprayer and I myself just got one. What chemical would you recommend to use in these for cleaning parts, chainsaws, blowers…..? Thanks!
Brakes parts cleaner in 5 gallon bucket.
Thank you for a very fast response! Enjoyed your videos for a long time.
Why did you not clean the old gasket material off the phenolic spacer?
I was so focused on filming I didn't pay attention to it. I noticed when I edited too.
I run 87 octane corn gas in all my equipment, and have a small engine repair shop, go figure. Old gas with water in it that is premium non ethanol is no better, and I see it all the time. Anyway, always better to keep original Zama or Walbro carburetor and clean it, replace metering diaphragm, etc. then replace with cheap Chinese carburetor. I replace carburetor with aftermarket on if too far gone, damaged, etc.
Great tip!
This blower was mine and I tried cleaning the carb ultrasonic cleaner and all and the machine still would not run right. I bought an aftermarket carb, and the machine ran lousy. Hipa asked if I wanted to try their product and I knew I had this blower sitting on the shelf. I got to tell you I am very impressed with the way this carb. ran right out of the box. There are also 2 small hidden adjustment screws with access on this aftermarket carb. I think Hipa has better than most quality control, because I have used some of their 4 cycle carbs that fit well and ran well. It is worth (in my opinion) replacing an OEM carb with a good aftermarket if you can do it yourself and avoid the costly bill of a small engine shop. Thanks for your comment.
I have used Hipa products and found the quality to be good. Please remember that when I comment it is more for your viewers than you. I have watched most of your videos and you know what you are doing no doubt. Hoping 2023 is a good strong year for everyone!
Hey Bob just wanna let you know I have the exact same echo leaf blower PB250 and I ordered off of your link for same and it’s a totally different carburetor instead of throttle being a cable it is a solid rod with a z bend which will not connect and the rest looks different as well
It was the same item you had so it wasn’t different in that regard
My guess is there was more than one carb setup for this blower unfortunately I probably am out the money but I think it’s imperative that you state to others that may order this kit that they May actually be getting a different carburetor kit for the echo PB 250
Definitely not good
If you find out anything please leave me a reply thanks I appreciate any information
Update: just investigated my carb on my unit and it’s a walbro and luckily I found the exact one on Amazon however it wasn’t as cheap as hipa!! However I really do like this piticular echo blower so I ordered carb
Okay, I checked my Amazon link and it it to the correct carb. Does your carb match the picture on the website? If it does not Amazon will pick it up for free and refund your money. Good to hear you found the OEM.
@@doublewide6hanks for the heads up Bob
Yeah I should have it Friday I knew though that it was going to be more being a OEM lol and it’s not a kit it’s just the carb but I think walbro is a sound company. These days you have to be so careful
I will give a update when I get it installed
Thanks for the quick response
I really like that spark checker but the link you provide is for one of those everyday bulb-type testers, not the yellow one in your video. Do you have a link to the yellow "SparkCheck" tester?

They are not cheap, but pretty nice when working alone.
HIPA carb kit from link shows $17.99 not $9.90 :(
only part of the products priced at $9.90
I guess they have certain carbs for $9.90 I was not aware that this one was not on the list because they sent it out and asked that I tell my viewers about the $9.90 sale pricing event. Sorry about that, but $18 for the carb kit and extras is pretty good in this economy.
The link to the spark plug tester goes to a different type, nothing at all like yours.
That $10.99 might be your price but it sure ain't ours.
