unusual one here...carb from a large Stihl hedgetrimmer. My services engaged to repair by a pro landscape service as it
was not able to start.

So....checked spark (ok), then carb apart, cleaned some goo, test start/run, tweaked the mix and idle screws. Now starting/running consistent. Called him back within 2 1/2 hours....DONE, at a very reasonable fee. In contrast, their normal repair shop suggested replacing the trimmer with a new one (at $250 thereabouts).

Saved an expense for them...hmm.....some repeat business on the horizon?
