Craftsman 25cc Gas Line Trimmer Questions & Answers
Craftsman weedwacker won't start
When the Craftsman Weedwacker starts in idle and then stalls and the primer bulb will not fill with gasoline or will not pop back after being pushed in, then you have a blockage within the carburetor. The bulb is intended to **** fuel into the supply line, to prime it. To solve the problem, remove the carburetor, open the side that has ONE screw holding it (not the side with four small screws), remove all the two lines remembering how they were attached (the feeder line from the fuel tank attaches to the straight copper tube and the tube going to the bulb intake side attaches to the bent copper tube) and blow out the material blocking the fuel flow inside the carburetor. Then after replacing the carburetor, press the bulb and it should **** and discharge fuel easly. I have had two of these and the fuel path within the carburetor clogs easly. Jim Hart
Only runs on choke
fit a diaphragm kit in the carby
the pump diaphragm is the first to fail and then the float diaphragm distorts and will not let in enough fuel to keep it running
Starts but wont run with choke off
My Yard Works was set at the factory to run with the choke partially on. They said it has something to do with the air pressure where we live. Otherwise if it has to have the choke on full then there should be a screw to set it so it will run with the proper setting

Sounds like the carb is getting clogged. Drain the old fuel and make sure the fuel filter is attached to the fuel hose inside the fuel tank. SeaFoam or a product called Start will sometimes clean the carburetor. If not, you will need to have the carb rebuilt, flushed or replaced.
Also, check your muffler and spark arrest, sometimes if they are clogged, you will have a similar issue.

I had the same problem. If you replace the lines and you get them swapped, it just won't run. Nothing will be damaged. So then just swap them around. There are only two choices. Trial and error worked for me!
