hello my friends today i want to tell you how to get a weed eater string trimmer weed whacker
whatever you call it unflooded so sometimes people get their string trimmer flooded and basically
this can help flood it so there's a choke right there's a choke so what happens is that may be
great if you're going to start it and it's been sitting for a while but if you've been like
running your weed eater for a while and it's nice and warmed up maybe running it for 20-30
minutes and then you just put it down because you want to go do something in the house real fast
grab a drink and you come back and then you go to choke it and you start trying to like pull
it while it's choked then what can happen is you get basically gas in there and then your string
trimmer is flooded and so then your string trimmer does not start so i'm going to go ahead and show
you how to unflood it and i want to use more of an extreme example of flooding it so basically
you might get a little gas in if you do it like you know if you're choking it when you shouldn't
but you might be like well how do i start it so basically to start it what you want to do
is have the choke off and you want to hold the throttle in make sure it's on a start hold the
throttle in and then be pulling the rope okay just like that and you just hold the throttle down okay
but i want to go ahead and deliberately flood this even worse than what you could probably
do that way just to show you how to do it okay so um I'm going to go ahead and i want to take
you might need to come around around i want to go ahead and take the spark plug out and I want
to pour fuel where the spark plug goes okay by the way please subscribe to our notifications
I've done a lot of videos um there's a spark plug okay let's go ahead and put it in there
now i just want to go ahead and pour fuel in here um
i might need a funnel is there any way you could hold it at an angle like that or not
it wouldn't hold the phone I don't know if you could or not
if you can it's here let me I'll just try to brace it underneath
all right i just want to go ahead and basically put gas let's see the whole right into that hole
all right uh whoa okay i got gas in the hole there we go now what's gonna probably happen is it's
gonna probably not even wanna pull the rope when I first do this the rope's probably not even gonna
hardly pull it's gonna be like probably like hydro locked vapor lock whatever you call it all right
so i'm gonna go ahead and do this just plug it uh screw this in now obviously if it was actually
possible for it to be flooded this bad it would be a lot more simple to just take the spark plug out
and dump out the fuel however I deliberately want to do it the harder way to show you how to do it
okay so if you enjoy you appreciate what i'm doing please sub turn notifications let me know what you
think in the comments all right have you ever had something not when it's a string term or not start
and you're wondering how to make a string trimmer start how to make a weed whacker start okay
so right off the bat I can tell you I'm probably not going to be able to pull the rope I'm not
100 sure I got to try this but obviously I want to make sure that the choke is not
on because it's our you know already flooded I want to go ahead and squeeze this in
to help it start to drain and i want the choke to not be on and i might need to pull this
30 times i don't know it might smoke a little bit don't do this in an enclosed area okay so
I want to hold the throttle down make sure it's on the run and I want to just keep pulling all right
oh wow so it sounds like it's starting to want to run so I'm still holding the throttle down
right here this helps it to stay to get unflood how to unflood your engine here so here we go
okay seems to run let's go ahead and see if it'll start up easy this time
so my friends that is how you can successfully unflood your small engine this may work
for more than just a string trimmer it might work for a snow blower it might work
multiple different kinds of small engines just be aware if you choke it when you shouldn't
that you may incur that where it floods the motor so anyways let me know what you think in the
comments I love y'all you're awesome please sub thank you so much for watching love y'all and bye
