1) NEVER buy gas anymore with ethanol. That will destroy your carburator.
2) Empty your gas tank again and if your blower is old - 10 years or older , replace your hoses, and your filter that is in your tank. cost is around $6.00 for both.
3) an empty your bowl completely!
if this doesnt work, Do NOT replace with a kit!!! You can find a brand new replacement carburator on Ebay for $40.00 and it takes only 3 minutes to do. Theres only 2 screws holding it on. I just did this with my echo PB 400E !!! Good luck buddy

Flux capacitor
This is most likely the problem I've been a master mechanic for 15 years now and when customers bring in their small engine devices, like your blower, it is always a problem with their flux capacitor. Not a cheap fix, however; will cost you a couple G's. But with a new flux capacitor it should run very smoothly for at least a couple more weeks.

Good luck with this...in my area you can't find real gas anymore.
