Repair leaky fuel line on 4-cycle trimmer #96

Closed jonathanstokes closed 4 years ago

jonathanstokes commented 4 years ago

We have two 2-cycle trimmers and one 4-cycle. The 4-cycle is green and looks like this: image

It's sitting on the floor of the landscaping shed instead of hanging in its place on the wall because when we put fuel in it, we realized it had a leak in one of the fuel lines. If it were stored upright, all of the fuel will leak out of it.

We also have several different sizes of fuel line on the wall of the landscaping shed, here: image

This task is to find the leak and repair it. After you're sure what needs to be replaced, you might need to dump the fuel out to avoid getting it on everything (dump it on a plant somewhere where we don't want plants to live). If the fuel line is held in place by a metal clamp, you'll need to reuse the clamp on the replacement line.

As far as I tried, the trimmer does not start, but the fuel line is repaired.
