Weedeater Excaliber Hedge Trimmer will start but will not keep running, stalls after it's started. Seems to be a problem with the gas. Have used new fuel and oil mixture. Fuel line within gas tank has been replaced. Primer bulb works. If you keep working the choke, it runs, but cuts out. When you just press the throttle, it won't pump the gas and it stalls.
Rebuild carburetor or find part number for carburetor and go online some carbs. Are cheaper to buy than rebuild.

My Bolens Weedeater runs for 3 or 4 seconds and stop but it will run only if I drop some gas in the caburator then stop. Can you help me with this problem?

There are 2 different set ups for fuel lines on these 2 stroke carburetors. One has a remote primer/purge bulb and the other has the primer/purge bulb on top of the carburetor. Here are instructions on how both kind work and how to service them.
The small diameter line out of fuel tank (has filter in-tank on end) connects directly to the side of the carburetor that has the fuel pump....that is the cover without the hole in it. Other larger diameter fuel line out of tank connects to the longer nipple on the external purge/primer bulb. The bulb "pulls" fresh fuel from the fuel tank to the carb and then out of the carb to itself, where it then "pushes" any air/old fuel back into the fuel tank. The remaining larger diameter fuel line in this setup goes from the metering chamber (has cover with writing on it and a vent-hole) side of the carburetor to the smaller nipple on the purge/primer bulb. Again, on the primer bulb, the longer nipple has a line going directly from it to the tank. This is the return line. The shorter nipple on the bub has a line from it going to the metering chamber side of the carb. If the purge/primer bulb is on top of the carb...small line from carb body to small hole in tank with filter. Larger diameter line goes from the bulb on the fuel pump side of the carb to the larger hole in the fuel tank where sometimes the line is held in place with a nylon nipple connector that keeps the line from pulling out of the tank. Otherwise, the line should enter the tank for about 1/2" or so
If you have any more questions, please post back. I will see your comment and be glad to help you,

You should be able to sharpen your hedge trimmer blades. There is a good video on how to sharpen hedge trimmer blades on youtube by ereplacementparts. He explains how to do it with a file or a grinder.
