Probably carb is gummed up ,a bad plug can do it also,a more rare would be coil.

Probably needs the inside of the gas bowl cleaned...Whats happening is its burning more gas than its getting..As it sits a little bit of gas in going into bowl...As you crank it its using more than its receiving..Sea form works wonders..But after each season by some led and put it in the gas...It makes the gas stay fresh for starting motor for the next year

Dump the fuel in the tank, get new gas and new oil and start over. Get a carbeurator cleaner additive for the gas as your carb. is dirty resulting in the sporatic operation.

A spray carb. cleaner that you squirt into the air intake by removing the air filter will also work for you. In fact, when you are getting the carb. cleaner get a new air cleaner and a new spark plug. get back and let me know how u make out.

If it's electric, you probably cut the wire internally by kinking it or stretching the iwre beyond it'd capability.

Cuts off when heated up

Its the way the carburettor works..You have not named the model and brand, but I suspect the choke is staying on after it warms up. This is an easy fix but needs to go to small repair shop

I own a Troy-Bilt 425cs string trimmer with multiple add-on attachments. The unit works fine for string trimming, brush cutting, and cultivating. However, it will not properly power my edger attachment. ...

The power edger attatchment may have a slightly different coupling size on it than the other attatchments. Also, do a good inspection of the power head unit's coupling at the EZ LINK connector. Maybe the head unit connector is getting hot over time, due to a lack of lube, and expanding internally, causing slippage in the connection to the edger attatchment. Inspect all that you can.

Can't start my Pe550 Gas Edger. I cleaned the air filter. I'm having trouble getting the old spark plug out to replace it. How do I do it, and what else could be the reason for it not starting?

Hello rne.... Take your edger to any auto parts store and either borrow or buy the correct spark plug wrench to remove it. Have them remove it for you to check it and see if you have any serious problem that a bad spark plug might show. Then purchase a new spark plug, have the store gap it and install it. They do this fo no fee.

Once you have a new spark plug, new, fresh fuel with oil added to the fuel mix, and your clean air filter your edger should start right up. If it doesn't get a can of starter fluid, give the air intake a couple of squirts and start it up. If it stalls again get a helper to spray more starter fluid at the air intake until you run it for at least a full minute on the starter fluid. That will clean out any crud that is causing your troubles. Joe
