Pull spark arrestor screen off muffler
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Got it fixed. Got some replacement parts that came pre-assembled in the form of a new one. Still can't give up on the old one but gotta wait till it cools off to do anything with it. I removed the spark arrestor completely and tried it. No luck. When I start back on it, imma gonna check compression and cylinder inspection then tear down and start over from ground up. Did buy some red fuel for the new one. High dolla but so is new ones and aggravation.

Pull unit apart and look at the key that positions flywheel on the crank. I have seen a key slot that sheared or partially sheared and that changes timing of flywheel to the crank. You may have fuel and fire but the unit will not start or run properly.
Way to go Pops.That is a really good suggestion .Have had several Briggs n Straton lawnmowers shear keys usually after trying to mow a rock or stump and the abrupt stop shears the key.You may have just resolved the issue...My hat is off to you......
Hey Wannabe,Do you have a flywheel puller?????

compression is min 120+ pounds to run right also make sure you didnt hook the fuel lines up backwards I see it every day at the shop.
Us normal folks don't need a weed eater, we could just ugly them down. Not WB, he can't do that, there wouldn't even be any dirt left. ........
