Troy Bilt Blower, smokes a lot

[semimechanicman]

I bought a Troy Bilt leaf blower, I did all the usual things to fix a small engine like air filter and I also bought a brand new carb. However, it smokes a lot but I do not know what the problem might be. Any suggestions?

Most likely too much oil in the fuel mix if it is a 2 cycle version or if 4 cycle version too oil or simply worn out engine.

Smokes from where ?
strong blow out the exhaust or wafting from under the heat guard ?
Does it do it from the start or only after the engine warms up
What colour is the smoke, black, blue, white, yellow with green stripes ?
does it change if you tip the blower fan side down & / or start side down ?
and a model number would help the USA based techs a great deal
There are a lot of blowers with Troy Bilt on the side of them .

The blower smokes a lot from the muffler and every time I press on the throttle, the smoke increases. The color is grayish white, and smokes no matter if it is warmed up or not.

Also the model type is TB430

Sounds like your carb may have a loose welch plug. It causes the unit to run, but extremely rich.
