    Weedeater XT200 won
    I have a Weedeater XT200 that won't start. Does not fire. The spark plug sparks and I used carb clean out and cleaned the carb and needle. I di notice that the screen had a build up and I sprayed it really good. I sprayed starting fluid in the spark plug hole, but it still does not fire at all? Any suggestions?

    Is this a bent shaft or a straight shaft. I have noted the bent shaft design is hard to start because the load is too great. Will it start if you take the cutting head off? Look for any buildup around the shaft
