    Homelite Weedeater not running
    I have a Homelite Weedeater that once it gets hot, it simply won't stay running. I noticed today that the gas is bubbling and also bubbling inside the bulb that you pump up a few times. What could be causing this? How do I resolve this problem?

    It is running extremely lean, either the oil mixture is off or the carb adjustment is off. You will cook the engine without fixing the problem. Try turning the "H" carb screw counter clockwise 1/8 turn and remixing the fuel.
