No spark
Check and adjust the spark plug if that is ok then replace the coil.
Craftsman weedwacker model #358797150 will not pick up fuel
Have you checked the fuel filter and made sure it is not plugged. Make sure the primer bulb is not cracked or leaking pressure. If you have then I would be sure the fuel cap is not bad. To check the cap you should be able to put the cap on the tank pump the primer button to build pressure in the tank and then turn the cap a turn or so and hear the pressure release. If that is all ok then I would think the diaphragm in the carb is bad and the carb needs to be rebuilt.

Not sure what you mean but if you are saying the weedwacker head is not engaging it may be the cable that goes from the motor to the weedwacker head and runs down the inside of the shaft.

316.791961 carburetor rebuild
Bought this model 2 years ago. Used it 3 seasons. Started getting hard to keep running and finally checked out the issue. Found the primer bulb cracked. Got a primer bulb (Walbro 188-12-1) from Co-op and seemed to fit but still wouldn't start.
Started looking for a rebuild kit and found none. Called the MTD office (this was built by MTD for Craftsman) and they don't make a rebuild kit. They said because the new carb is as cheap as a kit. I looked for a new carb and found one on ebay for $28 shipped free. PN: (753-06258a)
Ordered it, it arrived 3 days later and installed it. Started right away. Comes with a few part I didn't use. Gaskets and spacers. I only replaced the carb. Also I am pretty sure the orientation of the gas lines are different on this new carb. This one is a replacement "a" model and I think I had to put the green and yellow line different than the original model. stead of coming out the top the ports come out the bottom. Just hook it up and have only about half a tank of gas. That way the return line is above gas level and can't suck gas if hooked up backwards. If you start to prime and get only air then reverse the lines.
Went to Lowes and got the jumpstart bit for a troybilt for $10. Place on the cordless drill (high speed) and start like a car...get one but make sure you have a fast drill.

How do you rebuild carberater on a 4 cycle 29cc weed trimmer
There is not much to it. There should be information stamped or printed on the side of the carb - maker and model#s. Take this information and do an internet search with it. You should find a rebuild kit for around $10. The kit should come with a diagram and directions. Take the carb apart, clean as necessary, reassemble with the new parts and you are good to go.
