A guy at work gave me his old ECHO weed wacker (has the curved shaft) that I think is a '92 model. I forget off hand what model it is. Anyways, he had problems with it bogging down intermittently when using it. I found that it needed new fuel lines and a filter, a new plug, air filter, and after replacing all that, I went to use it and the primer ball split. So after fixing everything,I found he had the adjustment screws all out of wack from trying to get it to run right. What is the proper adjustment for these as I've messed with them, but can't seem to get it to run ok...it is either hard to start, or i get it to the point where it starts fine, but then it smokes pretty bad. Most stuff seems to like the idle screw turned in all the way and then backed out about a turn and a half, but I havn't worked on 2stroke stuff to much so I wasn't sure. I don't really know how to adjust the high speed screw. I'm afraid to mess with it and get it to lean and burn it up.
