It starts and runs for 2-3 minutes and quits. I can restart by choking it but then it dies. If I let it cool down trimmer will restart and then die again after 2-3 min. Help!
Hi Harry,
The number you wrote in the message subject is not the trimmer model, perhaps it is the manufacturer’s serial number for your product. If the trimmer only starts when it’s cold, a vent hole is maybe plugged on the gas cap.

I’m having problem keeping it started and making it keep the string in tact. I just got it about a month or two from Walmart and they refuse to exchange it for a new one. Can I return it to you all to get another one? I’m disable, single mother with one child trying to make it as best as I can with God’s help. Thanks and may God keep Blessing this company.
Hi Evon,
If you have warranty, why do they refuse to return it back?
This is not an official website, so I can’t help you with returning trimmer to factory. Website is financed by other methods as it’s stated on Privacy page, it’s not affiliated by manufacturer. At this point both quality of products and companies’ behaviour come to the question. Looking from our side, the only way we can help you is to give some tips to repair your FL20C. First of all, check is fuel-to-oil ratio correctly mixed. Then read about trimmer carubertor adjustments. If anything is broken, you can order parts at low prices (around $10).

PLEASE: Where can I find a place to replace the trigger on my weedeater, and also clean and tune it. I live in Chevy Chase, DC, zip code 20015. Please answer this question.

I bought this weedeater in April of this year. I recently used it and the neck next to the rotating end caught on fire. I have owned several of these in my day and never have I had this kind of problem. I’ve especially never had a problem so soon after purchasing one. I don’t have my receipt for this, so I can’t take it back to the retailer, so I was wondering what can be done about this?
Hi Scott,
if you don’t have receipt, the only thing you can do is to try to repair it. Replacement parts can be found on our website, if your model isn’t supported, please contact again and we’ll upload parts diagram.

I recently purchased a featherlite dual spool. I’ve rewound the line – per the instructions and at first everything worked fine. Now, i get about a minute or so of use before the line singes up inside the spool head and won’t feed out. I continue to tap while i’m trimming, but the line still seems to fuse together on the spool and breaks off. Any suggestions?
Hi Michelle,
what brand do you use? I’m asking this because poor quality or old lines tends to break. Have you rewind the trimmer properly? Here’s video describing how professionals do it.

I need some replacement parts, all I can find on the site is model FL1500LE. Are these the same units, if I order parts under the LE will they work on the FL1500? (gas line tubing)
2nd question – I am also looking for the rubber push piece that pumps gas into the carb. before you start it. I just need the rubber push piece itself. I don’t see that anywhere on the P/L?
Thanks for any help.
Hi Phillip,
units usaully have different parts. I didn’t understand which part exactly are you looking for? For FL1500LE there are two lines I could find: #18 Kit-Fuel Line #530069599, and #19 Grommet-Fuel Line #530053314. About second question, can you please find it on FL1500 parts list so I can give you exact part number.

From: Thomas C.
The motor stopped while using. I noticed that the thinner of the 2 plastic tubes from the primer bulb to the gas tank came out of the gas tank. I replaced the tube. It now seems like the bulb don’t want to fill with gas and when I tried staring it, at first it run 3 seconds before stopping. I tried again and again… now its up to about 8 seconds before it stops. Any assistance will be appreciated.

Hi Thomas,
