Weed Eater

Hello

This is a Weed Eater brand blower. It needed a little TLC. The friend who dropped it off did not wanted back. He was happy I fixed the Weed Eater string trimmer for him. I think ist about 20 years old, but in good shape. It will come in handy going around my flower beds and topiaries when a trim them, which is now!!!!!!!!!!

I've got one like that too, and can't believe it still runs so well after nearly 20 years!

I had one like that only older, I used it to dry off my bike, sweep the garage and back porch, overheat the burning barrel and such. Finally the engine gernaded last year. That was one FIL tossed out as "no good" about 16 years ago. Bought an electric Toro blower that works good. PITA reaching the burning barrel with an extension cord though.

Good for cleaning out pickup box too. Also I use mine for starting slash piles on fire really gets them going fast!

I have an Echo one. Only thing I had to do is to clean the spark arrester screen in the muffler. Handy as a pocket!

Blew the snow off the car last winter and it worked ok but I got kinda wet with the snow flying around. Needs to be done right after it snows before it gets crusty.

Hello,

I like this little thing. I set the spark plug gap originally @.035. Started and ran good. Just now I set the plug gap @.050 . Any guesses what happen?
