Petrol strimmer,, spark at plug,, petrol & 2

TO MIX THE FUELSee Figure 3.? The product is powered by a 2-stroke engine and requires pre-mixing petrol with2-stroke oil. Pre-mix unleaded petrol and 2-stroke engine oil in a clean containerapproved for petrol.? The engine is certified to operate on unleaded petrol intended for automotive usewith an octane rating of 91 ([R+M]/2) or higher.? Do not use any type of pre-mixed petrol/oil from fuel service stations, such asthe pre-mixed petrol/oil intended for use in mopeds, motorcycles, etc. Do not useautomotive oil or 2-stroke outboard oil.? Use only synthetic 2-stroke oil.? Mix 2% of synthetic 2-stroke oil into the petrol. This is a 50:1 ratio

Hi try a new spark plug check if it's got petrol check for spark put the lead on the plug before U put it in hold the side of plug on the mower & pull the cord to c if it's got spark.. check for compression put your finger over plug hole & pull the cord if it's got compression it should push your finger away good luck

If it is 2 stroke, take petrol /fuel and mix it with preferably synthetic2 stroke oil.

Ratio is usually 10L petrol mixed with 200 ml or 2 stroke oil, that is the best result, used it on my chainsaw, strimmer, moped, working for years without a glitch.

Often it's the easiest thing that stump us. Try changing the spark plug first. Sometimes a spark plug just won't fire under load, i.e., while it's in the cylinder but will spark if you have it removed. There are checkers for this, but it's a lot less expensive to just replace the spark plug. Do that first and let me know.

Put oil in your petrol can add the exact amount of petrol put the cap on shake well use and store out of sunlight

The internal combustion engine is quite simple. All you need for it to run is compression, fuel & a spark to ignite it. I'm not saying it'll do 40 MPH but it should start & run. If it doesn't then one of the 3 elements is missing.
You need the following - sounds stupid but it wont work if one of these is missing.
1. PETROL - fill the tank to be sure. If its a 4 stroke just petrol. If its a 2 stroke petrol & 2 stroke oil mixed or top up 2 stroke oil tank.
2. Fully charged BATTERY. Clean connectors on battery tops
3. a SPARK at spark plugs. Clean them while they are out. If no spark look for dodgy coils, plugs, HT leads, triggers.
Look for air leaks in fuel line - if bulb does not go hard you got an air leak. Does it smell of petrol? check for leaks in fuel line & around carbs, look for perished fuel line, loose clamps or if they are jubilee clips, they could be too tight, crushing the anti-syphon valves at the primer bulb. loosen them until squeezing the bulb scoots fuel out then re-tighten JUST enough to stop fuel leaking.
Does it turn over? - then battery ok & not seized
Does the choke operate? operate lever & confirm things turn properly on carbs.
Once its started you can fine tune it but it needs to start first!!

hi there keithprobert

the ratio to use if using top quality 2 stroke oil is 50:1 that is 20 mills of 2 stroke oil per 1.0 litre of petrol that you mix.

but if not using top quality 2 stroke oil use ratio 25:1 that is 40 mills of 2stroke oil per 1.0 litre of petrol that you mix.

cheers pauly46

dont forget the thumbs rating

Small trimmers are fine on a 25-1 fuel oil mix with a good two stroke oil.

yes 2 stroke in weedeaters, trimmers, etc, look on the cap, or sticker and see the gas/oil mix ratio
