SOURCE: String-trimmer (weed eater) won't start.

the only thing left is the coil that is inside the cover right next to the flywheel with a gap of 10 thousand of a inch a business card will work but a new coil is almost thr price of a new trimmer unless you have a used one

Testimonial: "Thanks for the help. We did look at the coil. Got about 30 volts out of it when we pulled the starter. I hope that means it's OK."

My Craftsman V20 battery powered weed-eater starts and stops after about 3 seconds. How can I fix this?

  • To fix a weed eater that won't start, check the fuel to ensure that you are using the correct gas-to-oil ratio for the weed eater. Then, you have to change the spark plug. After that, replace the fuel filter. Now, you need to review the starting process of the weed eater.

Why won't my Bolens weed eater rev up without bogging down

Hello, Robert!
There are some reasons for your weed eater to bog down:
  1. Problems with the filter (check whether it is clean and functional).
  2. Fuel issues (check whether there is enough gas and are you fuel tubes intact).
  3. Problems with the spark plug (check whether it is clean).
  4. Electricity issues (check whether the extension cord is intact and plugged in properly).
These are some of the basics, hope they help!
Otherwise, you might have to visit a service center.

Bolens bl160 weed eater. I problem that I have after it is started it doesn't reach full speed and cuts off it is only 2 months old.

The colour of the spark plug might provide a clue. If it is sooty it could be the air filter is blocked or the coldstart, choke or strangler isn't switching fully off, opening or disengaging.

Perhaps the throttle isn't opening fully or perhaps the carb needs adjustment. If it is a 2-stroke perhaps the fuel/oil mix is wrong...

I ran my weed eater with pre-mix contaminated with water,now it wont run... how can i fix? Will I need flush/clear the fuel lines? Where can I find a walk-thru?

Start by draining the fuel tank completely, remove the spark plug and clean, if you have a purge bulb part fill the tank with fresh fuel, now pump the bulb 20 times, drain the tank again, re fill the tank and, pump bulb and try to start in the normal way, good luck.

Having a problem starting my Shindaiwa T22 Weed Eater.

take the spark plug out and pull the engine over with the spark plug in the wire and ground the plug to the trimmer and see if it sparks. if not flip the switch the other way and see if it sparks then you shall know.
