If the motor is running another possible solution is you have a broken drive shaft spring PN-753-04280 To check this remove the screw which holds the **** pipe to the motor and loosen the clamp. The **** pipe should pull right off the motor exposing the end of the drive shaft spring. Pull the end of the spring, if it comes out it is broken.

If the motor is running, and the spool is installed correctly, this sounds like a clutch problem where the motor attaches to the spring that turns the head where the string is located. You fix this by removing the 4 screws that attach the motor to the pull string, separate, dismantle the clutch mechanism, replace. It is a good idea to service the spring as well with light grease, as this can get very hot and damage the unit. A clutch can go bad by having excess amount of string turning as well.

I looking for a shop service manual for a McCulloch weed wacker

When you cleaned the carb did you replace the diaphragms and gaskets or did you just take it apart and put it back together? Sounds to me like the metering diaphragm is stiff

Have a Ryobi weed wacker 725r 31cc click link Trimmer Plus. No more line-can't figure out how to remove bottom to replace the line or what kind of line to replace with. Deceased husband lost directions...

i also have a ryobi weed wacker. if it is the same. you don"t have to remove the button. line up the 2 arrows one on wheel with bumpy edges and one by the button. you should see 2 holes feed a 2-3 foot piece of line into the hole the line comes out of for cutting and it should come out of a curved holw on the bottom by the button .tuck the end into a small round hole . pull line tight (tug on the section that you cut with). wind the string by turn the ring around the button. til desired length. if this doesn't work. google you model # and look for a manual (manual for ryobi weed wacker model # ------------.)

Double spool on Weed Wacker

This isn't a solution to the problem. However, I think you should talk to someone at Home Depot or Lowes or wherever you bought the model, and see if the string is in there correctly; if it is, then u'r weed wacker must have some other mechanical problem. Sometimes it is just best to buy a new one. The more expensive models are the best.
