Absolute great tutorial! I bought this trimmer last summer and it ran flawlessly all of 2021. Put it up for winter storage with a little Stable gas conditioner. Took it out yesterday and no start. Watched your video and felt confident in my certified TH-cam mechanical abilities and sure enough the jet looked clogged. I did not have any wire small enough but I did have a small drill bit the did the job perfectly. Only turning by hand. Flushed with some carb cleaner and it fired right up. Also the o-ring and white plastic you mentioned did stay on the engine so I put them back on the carb before reassembly. Thanks so much!
Great walk through. Fixed my problem. When I removed the bowl a small metal disk fell out and I put it to the side after not seeing an obvious place for it. After reassembling it started then ran a bit rough. I stopped it and put a bit more gas in the tank thinking it may be hitting a few little bubbles of water in the line. Then I saw it was flooding all over the v place, coming out the carb. I took it apart again and removed the float assembly and found the recess where the plate goes and tapped it back into place, reassembled and it's starting on one pull like it should. Again thanks for the walk-through. It was well done, good video and sound, unlike many I could mention. I have been skimping on alcohol free gas I'll admit. Anecdotes aren't proof but 1000 county gearheads can't be wrong, miright?
My husquvarna mower has a fuel shutoff lever so I usually always try and turn that off right before I’m done mowing to let the mower carb run dry. This way I haven’t had an issue starting since I’ve owned it. Knock on wood. 👍🏼😊
I definitely think this is my issue I’m having right now. Leaving fuel in for too long. I have a Powermate trimmer that looks very similar but has always been a bit of a pain to start. Even when it was new.
yes it's quite a bit more than mixing it yourself. What I usually do is is the premixed stuff when I'm not sure if I'll use it again. usually near the end of the year.
Great tutorial. I was hesitant to try to fix my push trimmer but these instructions were so well done that I gave it a try and it worked. Thanks for saving me a repair bill.
After a winter in storage, I put new gas and a new plug in my Husqvarna 675hwt trimmer, pulled, pulled, pulled and got....nothing. What to do with all repair stores closed due to world bug freak-out and the Husqvarna manual of no use? On the theory that TH-cam has a video on just about everything I did a search and--sweet baby jesus--found this. Followed along step-by-step but wasn't very hopeful as I didn't encounter any noticeable gunk. Reassembled, then BAM, started on the first pull. Don't know who you are, but my lawn, pocketbook and sanity thank you.
I always buy ethanol free gasoline With stabilizer ive learned not to buy k100 I like sea foam better or star tron the ethanol causes carburetor problems possibly irreversible damage to the carb
I have had my trimmer for 3 years now and have never had a problem with it until this year. I have been trying to get it started for several weeks now with no luck. After watching your video I went out and followed your steps and it fired off on the first pull. Thank you, thank you, thank you...
100% gas.... ethanol-FREE gasoline and oil mixed in as directed before pouring in the tank.... Synthetic 10W is the usual type and generally at 40/1 or 45/1 ratio (gasoline/oil)
Thanks so much for this tutorial. Our weak behind trimmer gets heavy usage so I try to take good care of it. Never had any problems with it until last week when it suddenly wouldn't start. I use Sea Foam in all my fuel cans but as much tall grass as I use it on I've been pretty sure the carborator is the problem. After watching this I can now proceed with seeing if that is the problem.
I would add a fuel valve in line with the carburettor,switch it off after use then run the carburettor dry so ethanol fuel,etc won't ruin the carburettor. I just leave fuel in the tank of my 3 hp Briggs and Stratton lawnmower because it runs the choke O Matic carburettor which sits on the fuel tank so it's not affected by the fuel. That sticker on the air filter cover is the stupid one that I'm talking about Briggs & Stratton putting on their engines,I always change the oil so it won't end up like the Briggs and Stratton engine which was off a Murray lawnmower base & fitted onto a Poulan base on one of the other videos !
I use stable fuel additive I don’t have any problems always starts up I use it in a generator that I start once a year if that same fuel no problems knock on wood thanks for sharing
Nice Husqvarna. The carb jet is three pieces. Expensive and lovely. Good for you. Maybe you'll find premium non-ethanol fuel in the Toro I recently sold.
thank you thank you for posting this repair followed your video step by step and my non starting trimmer started first pull if your walk behind trimmer wont start this fix works thank you again
Yes, I did leave it in after last mowing season and now, my trimmer won't start. I will try this disassembly and cleaning if it will ever stop raining here. I will also not be putting any more ethanol in it, either. That stuff is gumming my equipment up.
I have kept untreated gas in my small engines and yes I have had problems like with the exact machine in this video.I will try your method to fix it.I also have an echo SRM 225 that I need to repair I believe is also carb issues and a 8000 watt Honda generator that won't start
While watching your video I thought about the Dr trimmer I purchased off a co worker for a100 bucks it was like brand new but wouldn't run while watching your video I was like shit mine does that as it sat for a year without any use beings that I'm no mechanic lol I followed your repair and it fired right off .In closing I gotta say thanks now I can go tame my property line .
I always run mine dry and it still won't start. These Briggs and Stratton carburetors are absolute garbage. It's impossible to get away from them nowadays because everyone is using them.
Just running a piece of wire in that little tube fixed it? What a unreliable engines they're putting on machines these days! My orange string trimmer is less than a year old - with an automatic choke - and also won't start. And I've used only "ethanol free" gas in it. Manufacturer said I'd have to take mine to an authorized repair facility 30 miles away to be covered by warranty -- and that facility told me I would have to pay a $50 inspection fee if the repair wasn't covered by warranty..
Took my friend's carb apart, today, and found the suspect orifice blocked with a tiny bit of something. This orifice acts as the ONLY fuel filter on the engine, so will likely plug again, unless a filter is added between the fuel tank and carb. I find it strange that none of the repair folks, working on these carbs suggest adding a filter to prevent having to clean the carb over and over. UPDATE... I just happened to look inside the fuel tank, and discovered a wire mesh filter at the outlet for the hose. So, it either doesn't trap particulates in fuel, or there were remnants left inside the carb, during manufacture. I found a 3/8 long bit of flexible material about 0.5mm in diameter inside the cavity that holds the metering unit. Obviously, the carb wasn't assembled in a "clean room". After reassembly trimmer starts on first pull every time. These engines are made to fail, as indicated by the manufacturer's suggestion to not change oil, but just add to it. Probably, they realize that gas powered stuff is on its way out, due to the eager acceptance of battery powered tools by the public.
After pulling out the emulsion tube, I could not push it back in. The middle hole was blocked by white plastic. I can tap the carb and get this to slide toward the choke butterfly then insert the emulsion tube but then the choke butterfly will not open. How do I fix this?
I've switched to ethanol free but the long winter no start still causes carb problems on trimmers and some mowers. you can't win. unless before storage you burn off all gas and even then at least one carb will need to be rebuilt. heck if it wasn't for carbs, you wouldn't have this channel and we wouldn't be watching all these issues ;-)
If i could give you more than one Thumbs up I would. Carbs will always develop problems so the best we can do is the most we can. Its better than nothing.
@@INSIDEHOUSEGARAGE ..well trouble making carbs or not, this is very entertaining and informative channel especially with no blasting music. but speaking of carbs i did not know this up until few days ago when I was watching that Englishman's channel amazing details the time he puts in, any way i just realized one of the problems with rebuilding carbs that i missed is the metering diaphragm. the metal plate has different size contact which can cause all kinds of problems.some are almost flat and some are protruding much more so it changes the amount of fuel by contacting metering lever. his channel is " TheRepairSpecialist"
well that was easy! just cleaned out that part in the carb and started like when it was new. (I used a bag tie...burned the plastic off....to fit into the piece that needed to be cleaned)
@@INSIDEHOUSEGARAGE well until I watched your video the machine just sat there! so it was easy AFTER watching your vid...thank you thank you thank you!
Great video. There's a black tip coming from the gas tank that looks like it terminates inside the air filter cover. When mine is running it sprays gas right at the filter. What is happening?? No way that's supposed to happen. Thanks!
are you filling the tank all the way to the top? that little plastic tip is part of an emissions system that vents gas fumes back to the intake of the carb.
I have the same 2 wheeled trimmer from Husqvarna , is it okay to dump out the oil and put in new Oil , its says never change oil and i find that odd . Whats your honest opinion ? Thanks .
if you never change the oil and with regular use, the engine will last about 3 years, and that's when they want you to buy a new one. but you extend that time to at least twice that if you do you regular oil changes. So it's really up to you if you want to believe their suggestion of never changing the oil.
We have the same model… Same condition. Previous owner used fuel with ethanol. A plastic carb? Wait, what? Plastic? Husqvarna had plastic surgery???!!!! Ridiculous. But, this fix worked for us too. Thank you.
Very Good information! Made my task simple:) Thank you for putting this out:) and actually seems anytime I don't use heet or the likes my stuff never Starts! Thanks again!
I've got this exact same machine and this video helped me solve the problem with it not starting. Thanks!! The only issue I had was when putting the automatic choke piece back on the plastic carb I didn't know you had to push down on it really hard to get it to lock in place. I thought I had broken off 1 of the nipple clamps, so I ordered a new piece only to find it only came with 1. By shining a flashlight inside the choke piece the fellow at the repair shop showed me that it has a metal ring inside it that when pushed down over the ridge it will lock in place. Works fine now.
I have one similar to this and the plastic housing where the weed eater string goes has a gash in it. So anytime I weed eat, grass wraps around the inner metal that spins the wires eventually stopping the engine. Or sometimes it will work still but due to all the grass inside cause embers and smoke. I don't see how to take off the part to replace.
@@cdub5907 have you look the bottom of the plastic ball? there should be a big nut there. Take that off, and the part you're talking about should Slide off so you can replace it.
@@INSIDEHOUSEGARAGE Feel dumb but yes. I noticed before but thought there was a way just to take the casing off and couldn't figure out. Didn't want to make problems worse if that wasn't it.
I have this same model. As long as I use Sta-Bil fuel stabilizer it can sit for a year and still start and run after a few pulls. Thanks for the very detailed troubleshooting procedure though!

Absolutely. Thanks for the comment I appreciate it
That is a sorry engine for that machine, should be a Honda, or Suzuki .
That would be a great choice for an engine
They told me pre mixed fuel is better than buy 2 cycle oil it cost more money I never bought it
unfortunately it's true, premixed fuel in a can is some of the best fuel you can buy, the price reflects it
My husquvarna mower has a fuel shutoff lever so I usually always try and turn that off right before I’m done mowing to let the mower carb run dry. This way I haven’t had an issue starting since I’ve owned it. Knock on wood. 👍🏼😊
That's the way to do it. You're ahead of the game. Thank you for the comment I appreciate it

Me too now…yay
Always treat my gas . Haven't had any problems since I started doing this.
Excellent information thank you for sharing your experience.
Yes

Cost more money for pre mixed fuel it has no ethanol in it
yes it's quite a bit more than mixing it yourself. What I usually do is is the premixed stuff when I'm not sure if I'll use it again. usually near the end of the year.
I use ethanol free I store it for months in it and it always starts up never have issues

maybe you could see the choke flap but if you don't know what it is......
I could
I notice that it says never change the oil so am shocked... So what is the recommended oil to add for that trimmer i have the same exact model.....
30w heavy duty, but 10w-30 is fine too.

With no fuel filter, this is always the problem with these.
