Most gas weed eaters use 2-cycle engines. For the Homelite 2-cycle engine trimmers, use a 50:1 ratio of gasoline to the Homelite lubricant. (For 1 gallon of gas, add 2.6 oz of the oil.)

Many Homelite tool manuals are available here: http://www.homelite.com/service_support/product_owners_manuals . Scroll down to find your string trimmer.

I hope this helps.

50:1 if that is too rich the weed eater will give off white smoke then use 30:1

Go to homelite.com, ordering parts, locating parts, select Homelite, select string trimmer, then find your ut number which will be your model no.

remove the cover and the screw holding the recoil down, turning the pulley ccw should release the spring then wind rope around pulley and (hopefully yours has the slot in it) wind in the direction of the pulley teeth then, holding rope in slot put back on spring and wind cw till almost tight, and install screw. Usually you can do this without taking rope handle off. sometimes you have to remove handle. look at spring end in the middle and make sure its not broke as long as you have it apart. Its a easy fix.
Thanks for using fixya

you should thke it to a small engin repair it wont cost much and if you get the spring unwound it would be verry diff to fix i have fixed a lot of pull ststers u must be carful with the spring linth of rope is usely a full spool
