Can't get my strimmer started
« on: October 18, 2010, 14:01:37 »
Used my McCulloch petrol strimmer at the plot this morning with no problems. I brought it home to use in my garden and now I can't get it started. Any suggestions?

More than likely you have had your strimmer on its side and the petrol as flooded the engine and the spark plug is wet, take it out wipe it dry and try again, :)
