Weedeater Featherlite XT114 engine fails to run

Hello All,

I bought a Weedeater Featherlite XT114 one year ago. From last few days, I have to face an issue whenever I tried to run it. Weedeater starts well but when I push a plug from haft in order to run, it suddenly dies. Please help!

Thanks a lot

Ben

Hi Ben,

When engine sit & even become quite old, all the fuel, which is left in a carburetor, will turn to latex & varnish, therefore causing this & some other related issues. Moreover, any gasoline, which left in the gas container for approximately, more than thirty days, has to be discarded, as it will also start turning into varnish. In order to rectify the problem, you have to clean the Weedeater’s carburetor along with the remaining fuel system.
