  • In this video we will look at a Stihl HS45 hedge trimmer that came in with the complaint that a tune up was just performed but the unit still won't start. Not everybody has the same idea of what a tune up is. #smallenginerepair

    I have the same set of trimmer hs45. Ever since day one it has always made me feel like it bogs on power I have full throttle but it always seems to like it’s bogging down. I only use stihl motomix in my equipment takes all the guess work out of my issues. Thanks for the video

    There is a T27 Screw on The Top of The Ramp for The Throttle Cable You Can Tighten Down For Removing The Extra Slack in The Throttle Cable 😀 Those Hedge Clippers are Notorious Also For Muffler Screen Plugging 😀 Nice Job on This Repair as Always Brother 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😊

      Thanks for the heads up but I think that screw fell out because I knew about it but didn't see it. Did you see it in the video? (cheap way of getting extra views) 🙂

    Preventative maintenance is always the way to go, Scott. Old fuel and not keeping check on things doesn’t help. I always empty my fuel tank and run it out of fuel after every use. I have this exactly same unit as well! Plus with my chainsaw’s I clean the air filter and sharpen the chain then tag them and put it back on the shelf for next time. I have several saws, so I pick a different one most times.
    Cheers 🍻

    Hey Scott...I use a small magnetic screwdriver to start those tiny un-flanged nuts. As long as everything is clean the magnet works well getting things started.

    Hello thanks for all the videos you post very informative, i was wondering is there a good reliable chainsaw you would recommend, and what would you say is a more reliable brand between echo stihl and Husqvarna?

    • @TheGreasyShopRag
      @TheGreasyShopRag  6 месяцев назад

      All three are good brands. I don't know what your needs are but I always recommend that you find a good dealer first then talk to them about a saw that matches your needs and budget.

    I have the same model trimmer that doesn’t start. I purchased a replacement aftermarket carburetor from Amazon but the adjustment screws were too big and the air cleaner wouldn’t fit back on it. I tried cleaning the original carburetor but still no luck. Where do you get your gasket kits. Maybe that’s what I need.

    • @TheGreasyShopRag
      @TheGreasyShopRag  3 месяца назад

      If its a zama or walbro carb we stock gasket kits from large distributors. For you the trick is knowing what carb you have and the model for looking up the kit(which you can do from the zama and walbro sites). If it not one of those brands then good luck.

    • @TheGreasyShopRag
      @TheGreasyShopRag  6 месяцев назад

      Maybe it doesn't like to be cuddled? Look in the fuel tank and see if the filter is jacked up...maybe not hanging down into the fuel when you're cuddling.

    I had a Stihl hedge trimmer. Do not leave gas in it. Had problems with the green fuel line. Kept shrinking up, causing the tank to leak. It was an awful U shape where it sealed to the tank.

    • @TheGreasyShopRag
      @TheGreasyShopRag  6 месяцев назад +1

      Usually those green lines hold up pretty decent but eventually they all go bad.

    I have one of those and had it serviced 2 times at the Stihl Dealer, and have to say it was a dismal failure Stihl does not run, useless piece of machinery, will never buy a Stihl tool again. The Dealer even had a go at me for using old fuel after returning for the second service the day after the first service as it would not run, needless to say I stated that the fuel was replaced at the first service by the Dealer. Cocky young man thought he was the master repairer.
    Happened in Australia QLD, wont say were, will not embarrass the Dealer, it will not help anyway. The only smoke that came out at my attempts to start it was from my ears.
