Default to all those people who are looking for a small engine mechanic



Thanks Larry.... I Have a question. Just about everyone I know that
has a 2-cycle weed eater seem to have the problem on it never starting
up again after the first winter after being used.... What can I do to
make sure my 2-cycle weed eater will start up and run as fresh next
summer after the winder lay-up as it did as a new unit this summer?

I have been told that draining the gas causes the carb seals/gaskets
to dry out. I have been told that leaving gas in is a No-No. I have
been told that putting a gas stabilizer in the fuel that will be left
in the unit over the winter just plane ole' does not work either....

What's the secret?

Best Regards,
Ed
