It won't start. No gas getting to plug no matter how much you pump. Air in the lines which is probably not good. Hey, I don't need a weed whacker for much; I need one for a few swipes. Don't tell me it's junk. I want to make this work because I'm not 6' tall and this model is a good length besides being fairly light. (And I already know the reviews stink.)
I've got a new carb coming in tomorrow or the next day. Yes, I could have just cleaned the other one because it's pretty obvious to me that the man who owned this didn't understand 40:1 and didn't read the manual that said "corn gas without additives" was not recommended so it's probably a gummy mess. (Anyone remember white gas? I do.) I purchased it from his wife at a yard sale--she knew I know.
Anyone want to walk me through the process? Got suggestions? T&T hints? Video links? (BTW, if I end up with a spare carb that works after cleaning--rebuild kits aren't available--I'll look for another non starter to rehab. Sometimes it's good to have an heir and a spare.
