I wish you lived nearby! I live in a small town and service is hard to come by. I would be happy to pay you. I have a Husqvarna 124C. I tried most of what you suggest last summer. Failed. But no doubt I missed something. With this video, I will start over. This is an old tool but with only a few hours so I assume it will work once I get carburation problems resolved. Thanks for the great video.
Thanks for the help. These videos made it possible for me to fix my elderly parents equipment and clean up their place for them. Your efforts have helped me put a smile on my parents faces! Thank you!
I have similar with a similar trimmer. I didn't run it dry last year. We moved, and I just didn't work it in. Hopefully, a little love will get it running again. It's a great trimmer.
Great repair she sounds great. Everything in my shed gets drained dry including primer then cranked until it won't fire on choke just in case there is some fuel in the filter, fuel lines or carburetor. Even my son's little homelite trimmer gets this treatment. Everything I have in the shed runs at the top of its game when I put fuel in it for the next season. Also I take the mufflers off and take a torch to the inside until the whole muffler glows orange. Sure fire way to make sure there is no carbon and that it flows like new.
I have the same trimmer! The only time I have ever had carb problems after storage was the one (And only) time that I ran it dry. I just fill the tank, and add some stabilizer.
I have that same trimmer and the 125b blower. The first few years I had them I never emptied the gas before winter storage. After doing this a few years they stopped running. I looked in the gas tank and the fuel filter had came loose from the fuel line. And the fuel lines were soft and brittle. I has to clean the carb because they got debris in them.I have had to change the fuel lines on both of them a few times. This last time I changed them I used those yellow fuel lines that are supposed to be able to withstand ethanol better. Hopefully they last longer this time.
I run my 2 stroke engines in the winter and fall once every two months to keep gas flowing with non ethonal gas and seafoam mixed fuel, till this day problem free!!!
stiff fuel lines are good clues that modern car gasoline was in the device. Only ethanol-free gas with correct % of synthetic oil is to be used. Fuel lines at a repair shop are under $1 a foot, so get plenty. I lube the line tip with a touch of WD40 so it will go on the fitting easier. I use carb cleaner on the outside of a fuel filter to help it if is is fairly clean, but they are cheap to buy.
A tip for keeping the metering diaphragm from losing it’s flexibility during storage…drain gas out of tank and put 100% 2 cycle oil in tank..enough for filter to pick it up and using purge bulb cycle it through carb…after storage drain what’s in tank and fill with the normal 2 cycle fuel mix and again purge fuel through carb …it will smoke more than normal initially but will burn off the small amount of excess oil rather quickly…this keeps internal carb components from drying out.
On the low screw I’ve found that adjust it for optimal idle speed then turn counterclockwise slightly just until you hear the rpm’s drop this will make throttle response smooth with no hesitation.
Thanks for the video. Im too lazy to run the machines dry so i syphon the tank close to empty and then make sure i turn each machine over once a year (I have about 7 small engine machines, 2 and 4 cycle). so far i haven't had any carb issues.
If I have fuel left over at the end of the season, whether it's inside the tank or inside the gas container I use to fill with, I add a product called Sta-Bil that I get from my local automotive center. Once added to the tank, I run it for a bit to let the product get inside the engine before shutting down. If I realize that I'm using the weed eater for the last couple of times in the mowing season, I'll usually add Sta-Bil during these last couple of runs to insure it's fully inside the engine. This product seems to be nothing more than an extra oily additive that protects the carb and inner workings of the engine from gasoline breakdown during storage. Using it, has not failed me ....yet.
I use ethanol-free gas on all of my trimmers, mowers, etc. I don't usually run them dry. The ethanol-free gas seems to keep the carbs from getting too dirty after the season is over.
I actually ran it all day yesterday, it never skipped a beat. They said now piston or cylinder damage. I used same fuel in 3 other machines. Nothing else has failed. They only thing that failed was the shitty plug they put in it.
I don't like those cheap tank that just have holes in them for the fuel lines I run a company and always by commercial equipment that has the rubber stopper in the tank for the fuel lines. We replace those kind of filters several times a year but our equipment gets a lot of use trimmers i would guess 150 to 200 hours a year and our blowers i would guess 300+ a year. Good Video!!!
I completely agree with you. If you ever want to start a commercial business look for tanks with large grommets. Then you know this equipment is probably for you. Thanks for the comment I appreciate it
I have never ran dry either. But as a gardener mine get used year round. Except for the backups for my backups. I do have a 128 ld it is my #1 and the piston froze up recently. Took to shop. Got it back. Kept dying. Changed thier shitty spark plug out to my brand of spark plug now runs great again. Piston just froze, no rhyme or reason. Fuel was good. Air filter good. It just did. No answers on that.
@@HomeGaragechannel yep. I was egdging. It died. I started it. Died again and was locked up. No damage to piston or cylinder. Same fuel I use in all my handhelds. Nothing else failed or has failed. Anyways, I have since switched two cycle oil. I used the 128 all day yesterday. It never faultered.
The 128 ldx runs better now than when was brand new. I wouldn't trade it for all the STIHL's in the world. I also use the click link for everything. A half turn and I'm edging. I have attachments 15 years old or more. Fit right on . I'm a small time gardener, but I used to work for a guy we did all commercial. Apartment complexes in Las Vegas bigger than shopping malls.
If you don’t mind me asking, where do you find the information about where the card H and L adjustment screws are located for various small engines? Just bought a new house and my grandfather had one of these weed eaters sitting in his shop. He was kind enough to give it to me. I tried everything to get it running that I knew how and determined it was a carb problem. I’m young and have never had to deal with it before so I didn’t know how to make any adjustments save for the idle speed screw. This video cleared it up for me. Big thanks, loved the content.
If its been a long time since it ran I would suggest replacing the carb. Theres a chance that you don't have to adjust the new carb. Oh the screws are pretty obvious when you have the carb in your hands.
mmm! yes, Husq 135R stored for months and now will only start (cold or warm) with choke on and when started will only run on full throttle (choke off of course:) but I'm hoping this video will help cure it without incurring repair shop extorsion :] many thanks
After I used True feel I never went back you can leave that gas right in the tank I do it to my snowthrower and all my equipment every season weather in the gas it always runs
THAT'S the reason why you should NEVER leave your trimmer with gas in the tank... When you're done using your trimmer, empty the gas into the gas container,then start the engine, leave it running until there's no gas in it
@@HomeGaragechannel the new husqvarna 525L is a beast. I have one and nothing green and growing can stop it. I mean outside of wood stemmed growth and brush. If it is grass even three feet tall and shorter it will eat it like a snack and want more at full throttle. But it still operates very good even at lower rpms. It's a beast when you need to be but it's tame as a house cat when going around flower beds and delicate areas of your landscape.
I love this channel! My dad has an old weedeater brand trimmer that i recently fixed. The problem was that the meetering diaphram was petrified and was missing the gaskits for where the carb attaches so it was leaking fuel. I did get it working but the only problem is the trimmer head wont stop spinning even i ajusted it to idle at a lower rpm. If i go to low, the engine will shut off. Do yoy know how to fix this? If you do know, that would be AMAZING. I love your videos, i watch them all the time!😀
thank you I appreciate it. If this happens, I would look at he inner driver shaft. Sometimes they get messed up on the ends, they don't break in the middle. Split the shaft and look at where the shafts couple together.
Here in Florida with Global Warming long storage does not happen anymore. In the summer I use my lawn equipment once a week, in the winter once every two weeks.
Great video. My only question is how do you properly adjust the carborateur? I am guilty of storing my edger for the season WITHOUT emptying the fuel. My edger is unable to run at high speeds. Whenever I try to run it at higher speeds it wants to die.
You have to first adjust the carb to idle. Then adjust it so it will rev up to speed. Then adjust it to maintain speed at full throttle. Your basically listening how the engine sounds most of the time.
@home garage I have a Husqvarna 128 RJ that starts only when you have the throttle and it will only run on half choke and then die if you let go of the throttle should I clean the spark roster or could it be carb related then run for 10 years with no maintenance to it so I don't know what's going on with that need to fix it for the grandfather what's your recommendation
I never let my 2 stroke engines run dry. 2 stroke engines are lubricated by the oil in the fuel so running dry is no lube to the crankshft & bore. A few seconds of no lube will cause wear. I am 65 and have been working on small plant engines for over 40 years.
I don't adjust for max rpms. I turn the H screw so it runs slighy rich which means the rpms will be a little lower than max. If you adjust the H screw so its at its max the engine will burn up.
@@monkyshine5543 it was a hard lesson for me when I started doing repairs. I set the trimmer for the max speed and about a year later I scored the piston. It was my own equipment so I used my own mixed has so I wasn't sure what happened. Then I realized that I needed the mixture to be a bit on the rich side to keep the combustion Temps down.
@@HomeGaragechannel it was walking nicely until it stopped and then siezed,it couldn't move. So I put some stroke oil in the piston for it to start moving, then I tried to start nothing. Still now it won't start please help
typically when there's not enough oil in the gasoline, the piston rings will get damaged and once that happens, the engine is less likely to start again.
I have an 128r, stored it fo winter two times, once half tank, once full tank. It started up both times no problems. Im not using any special fuel, regular pump gas has around 10% ethanol were i live. You really must have shitty fuel in the States.
i have a question i have trimmer 125L the machine turns on but when i start cutting the grass, after 10 mins it dies. I cleaned the carburetor and put new fuel and new spark plug and new filters and new spark arrestor
@@josephmateo9402 hmm.. after it dies can you test and make sure it still has spark? If it still has spark then it must be a fuel issue that's why I went with the cap. Time to replace the carb

You should explain which fuel line goes to which tube on the carburator. I'm sure this has caused many people to throw their machine in the trash 🗑️.

Sure try cleaning the spark arrestor, but the carb will need to be looked at, if not, maybe an adjustment.

the screw on the left is hi and the screw on right is lo

If you soak the carb in CLR or carb cleaner for an hour, you don't have to take the screen out.

I bring new husqvarna trimmer which doesn't start on second time what is the problem
Thanks for the comment. Did you or someone else mixed the oil and gas? And is the primer bulb filling with fuel when you press it a couple of times?
Use canned fuel mix like true fuel and it can stay in there all year as it has no ethanol in it

If the return line is too long will that keep it from starting
No not at all.
I never let my 2 stroke engines run dry. 2 stroke engines are lubricated by the oil in the fuel so running dry is no lube to the crankshft & bore. A few seconds of no lube will cause wear. I am 65 and have been working on small plant engines for over 40 years.
If it runs dry no need for lubrication, the lubrication is in the fuel, so can't make sense of your statement
@@davyg1236 IDIOT. It`s those few seconds of no fuel (ie) no lube that will cause undue wear.
So do not adjust to wide open RPM? Full ram then back it off a bit your saying?
I don't adjust for max rpms. I turn the H screw so it runs slighy rich which means the rpms will be a little lower than max. If you adjust the H screw so its at its max the engine will burn up.

typically when there's not enough oil in the gasoline, the piston rings will get damaged and once that happens, the engine is less likely to start again.
