Small engine guys, any suggestions on this trimmer?

If he was closer i would go through it. . After he does another go through, he should turn the mixture screw in till it stops, then out 1 turn and go from there. Those Zama carbs run around $30-40 new, at least they use to.

I need to chop those annoying plastic EPA set locks off first. Grumble grumble.

The HD, purple or black Nitrile ones hold up to Carb cleaner and brake parts cleaner.

My 13 year old bought a rebuilt mower this summer to make some lawn mowing money. The old guy he bought it from said 90% of problems are from gas sitting in aluminum carbs and going bad. I would nto bet against him.
