Good video Bill. I just got an SRM 210 in for repair, which the owner told me hasn't ran in four years. It looks like a straight shaft version of this one, and will probably use a carburetor from Amazon. I don't work on trimmers very much, so thanks for all the great videos on two cycle equipment.

I love the 210s. I had one a few months back that I kept for a couple of months before selling it. As long at it hasn't seen regular gas, a carb will usually get it back to its glory days pretty quick 🙂

Nice save Bill of an old trimmer. It should be good for years to come. Really starting to warm up here and the dog pecker gnats are horrible while mowing and doing yard work!😢 Stay safe and cool.👍😎🇺🇸

I am at the beach this week. I thought about doing a drone video while I am here, but it's sooo off topic lol

@rogermcdonald1607 I am on Ft Lauderdale beach and the "fly zone" is skinny, but it includes the beach for a mile each direction. I spent the morning flying around a collapsed pier

Your absolutely correct about regular gas, it destroys small engines. I only run ethanol free and Echo red Armor in all my 2strokes @40:1 and they all run fantastic. Its vefy important to use ethanol free fuel if possible. If not possible, the drain and run until equipment stops. Nice trimmer Bill, and good fix on that classic trimmer

Ethanol is "ok"(not great) as long as you keep in mind that it has a shelf life that is a *lot* shorter than good old-fashioned unleaded .I see a lot of old machines with solid internals and way too many where they ran "1 tank of gas, to finish the job". They are always burned up.

I run regular gas at 40 t0 1 i use little Lucas in it. Great job bill

Perfect. It will probably outlast both of us that way. 🙂

We’re fortunate here, couldn’t even get ethanol gas if I wanted - it’s all non ethanol in my state haha. Good job :)

I am jealous. It seems like neatly every motor I see has a carb problem you can chase back to old fuel.

@@GuysPlayingWithTools haha but you probably get more machines than I do because of it right 🤣👍

@@VintageEngineRepairs True. And sometimes I get really nice ones when they fill them up and let them sit all winter

You stayed up late for that one, you earned it. 🙂

ECHO SRM 225 stopped working in the middle of a job. An easy carb rebuild will get it back in shape.
