Hello Dave,
ah now there's one .... i got tired of buying 'em... they would
run for two years and on the third, when refusing to start, i
would break the pull cord rewind assembly, spend days putting
THAT back together and still not be able to get 'em to run..
(WEED EATER BRAND!)... last year i bought a STIHL... they guy
who sold it was/is like a repairman/STIHL rep... he told me to
do things i hadn't been doing with the other ones, NAMELY...
buy only PREMIUM fuel, ... don't use fuel more than 3 months
old.. (as an aside i've contacted CHEVRON about fuel "shelf
life". They say ONE YEAR in a closed container..
nevertheless...).. and be sure to run ALL the fuel out of the
tank (or pour it out, then RUN it out) each and every use....
so far so good .. i hate to have to throw out the fuel mix from
last year, but what's three bucks compared to the cost of a
weed eater?..
