Where can you purchase replacement weedeater string for the poulan gas powered trimmer?

The ratio is 40:1 Just add 3.2 ounces of 2 cycle oil to one gallon of fuel. Be sure to cap off the tank and shake to distribute the oil throughout the fuel before adding to weed eater.

change spark plug get new seal for gascap

Try changing the fuel filter and if that dont do it there is a small screen inside the carb that usually plugs up carefully disassemble it and clean it out with a good brand of carb cleaner

After you start it and are in the second stage of the choke (half choke ) let it run for awhile until it warms a bit then try openning choke and going to full throttle.

The cable has either broke or has slip back

the diaphram in the carb is dried out!! and has the needle valve stuck open time to rebuild the carb!! or get a new one

Hi
check in you tube .
The video is talking about trimmer strings in general , but my experience is that all trimmers are more or less the same.
hope it helps

You have/had a fuel filter in the tank.The connector goes to that filter, I think. The length does mean something but I don't know any way to figure it without a manual. You could try to figure from the total length. The fuel filter hold the line toward the bottom. Good luck.

So your weed eater fails to start. Is the unit fueled up? Since it's a two stoke the gasoline must be mixed with two stroke oil. The mix ratio is 40 to 1. That's 40 parts gasoline to 1 part oil. If there is fuel in the gas tank now, how old is it? If the unit was stored incorrectly the gasoline may have gone bad and gummed up the carburetor. If this is the case, the old gasoline will smell like varnish and the carburetor need to be overhauled and cleaned.
