My strimmer is running well on one of these. Have you triwed running it without the air filter? Bear in mind of course that then it will run weak and may nheed the choke.

Thanks for your reply. That's what I thought too, but apparently not. The sponge air filter is pretty clean (and I've also now cleaned and oiled it as per the manufacturer's instructions). I did try running it without the air filter attached, and the problem persisted.
