If fuel is present and spark is good then it's air. Remove air filter and see if it starts. If so, it's time for a new one.
SOURCE: Poulan weedeater will only run with choke half way on
this could one or a combination of a few things
1 check inside the tank for dirt 2check that the filter screen inside the tank is not plugged3 make sure the gas feed tube is not restricted pinched in the case or kinked also you can try a simple carb adjustment.also check to make sure the plug is gapped to the right specs good luck and i hope one of these suggestions do the trick
SOURCE: Feather Lite Weedeater(Poulan)runs for 10 minutes, then stops.
Haven't had the chance to work on it this weekend.Hope to have time this week some time. Thanks.
SOURCE: weedeater will not start. was running, shut it off
Pull the spark plug after pushing the primer bulb and cranking a few times...if the plug is "wet" (indicating fuel is present in the cylinder) then the next step will be checking the compression...compression should read above 90psi (preferrably 100-125psi)...if compression is below 90psi, the most likely culprit will be a stuck piston ring.

its probably not getting any gas from the tank try putting your finger on the hole on the carberator and pull your finger should be wet if not take fuel line of the carburator and thenblow then take off the gas cap and blow through the hole on the gas tank it should flow freely throgh teh line to the carburator
Testimonial: "Thanks for the help. The gas line was dessolving on the inside and getting into the carb. I replaced the gas line."

Check the fuel lines for cracks/breaks. If they are o.k., then:
Youwill need to disassemble the carburetor and spray with carb.cleaner.Make sure the small screen is free of debris. (Should be able to seedaylight through it.)
Use a Den Tek Brush, (http://www.drugstore.com/products/prod.asp?pid=165357&catid=1152),to clean the small portals in carb. These portals can become blocked. Reassemble and start.
If the carb. parts are more than 4 years old, you may have to replace them.
If you need further assistance on:
1. Fuel line replacement or
2. Carburetor kit replacement
Just let me know.

AI found out I had to replace the flywheel and a couple other things inside the motor. I could have just bought a new one but it was cheaper to just fix the one I have, and I really like this one.dd a Comment
