    Problems with my weed eater
    Does anyone know why my weed eater keeps on dying after about 15 to 30 sec. I am guessing it may be the coil, but yet again I may be wrong. Anyone can help me?:confused:

    Try the Seafoam or Deep Creep first. Saved me with my weedeater several times when I thought I would have to pull the carb.

    Pull fuel line and be sure it's clean, new fuel, THEN new plug, be sure air cleaner is clean and you didn't oil it TOO much

    Every couple years it does the same thing. Little carb cleaner and it runs like new again.

    Could also be out of adjustment on the carb. Has the unit set for awhile? If so the carb may need cleaned.
