I have an echo back pack blower that smokes a lot. I cleaned the carb and it starts and sounds fairly nice, but it smokes a lot and more when I rev it up. Don’t know what the problem is and I’m 99% sure the gas and oil is mixed well because I put it new. Any ideas?

But is mixed at the properly ratio and use not using marine 2 cycle engine fuel oil.

I bought that echo blower for fix but it is the same gas oil mix I use in my weed eater and my other blower and they run perfectly fine

If it smokes at high revs & not idle then the high speed jets are open too far or the carb is worn out if it is a rotary valve carb.

Maybe I worded it wrongly but it still smokes at idle but not as much as when you rev it up.
