Use 50:1 gas/oil with a GOOD QUALITY 2-cycle low-ash synthetic oil.
Remove the muffler and check the spark arrestor isn't partially blocked.
With a clear muffler, and the mix as described, there will be hardly any smoke at all.

If it is a gas (petrol) trimmer...then most often it is in the on/off switch on the handle. Before you go tearing anything apart...rock the on/off switch a few times to see if it helps. www.nnyparts.com
SOURCE: petrol strimmer keeps needing new spark plugs
There is very little to go wrong with a newish spark plug, so it is either getting to hot ans whiskering the plug gap ( the plug will look very white around the electrode and a tiny whisker will bridge the gap ) or the porcelain insulator on the plug electrode has suffered carbon fouling due to the engine running too rich, in which case just clean the plug so as the porcelaine is white again.
