    TroyBilt TB20CS Weed Wacker
    I have a TroyBilt TB20CS. While pulling the starter rope there
    Is a low resistance to the pull. Seems the Starter Recoil is Ok,
    But little compression.

    My guess is the Head Gasket or related?

    Does anyone have the head bolt tightening order and the torc, Please

    Thanks

    Never torqued any of these , I just get them tight.
    tighten bolts if four do it in a X pattern .
    check cylinder wall for grooves when you have it apart.
    my guess would be the piston ring is stuck.

    I kind of thought I'd just tighten as you suggest

    Thanks

    Hi,

    After taking it apart I found the Piston scored in a couple of places.

    I'm not about to pay approx $50 for a piston for this TroyBlt piece of C... p

    Thanks for your answer
