It is the right heat range and gapped to specs. Hold the metal spark plug terminal between your fingers and pull the start cord - does anything happen? |

The fix is really simple. Hold the trimmer in one hand Swing your arm a few times and on the third swing, toss the trimmer as far as you can. Aim for a neighbor's yard. Go to the local Stihl dealer and buy a real trimmer. |

Put the plug in your mouth, and hold the engine while pulling the cord. Do it right, and you may SEE the spark :-) -- "We are the Pentium Borg. You will be approximated." |
