I altered your steps, with success. Thanks for the thoughtful repair video. My steps: 1. Remove the sparkplug, as you did, then added 100% Marvel Mystery Oil. Soak overnight. Did NOT reinsert the plug. Soak plug in MMO 2. With the plug out I was able to hand turn the flywheel slightly counterclockwise. I continued to hand turn to loosen. 3. I made the mistake of pulling the cord hard, a stream of MMO came out. 4. Drain all MMO and oil. Add new oil. 5. Reassemble. 6 Started on 1st pull

I followed these instructions to a tee with my ceased Echo SRM 210. The pull cord loosened and I started it up. After 30 seconds it slowed down and shut off and was ceased up again. I can’t figure out why. I heard you mention something about the gas/oil mixture being too lean. I was using the Home Depot premix 50:1 (red can) for weeks with no problem. Then I switched to the premium 50:1 (silver can) and that’s when it ceased. However, for this fix, I emptied the silver can mix and refilled with the red can mix and it ceased again. This is frustrating. Can’t figure this out. Help please!

@@HNDSME247 mix your own fuel or run a can that has more oil in it l. 50 to 1 is incredibly lean and I believe was created just for emissions I honestly believe there's not enough oil in a 50 to 1 mix remember the first part is fuel the second part is oil so 50 parts fuel to 1 Part oil try a heavier mix 40 to 1 or heavier I wouldn't go much heavier than a 32 to one though that's getting a little heavy for "modern" 2 stroke

Nice video ils, I applied the same method to my 2 year old toro power head trimmer/blower. Used wd40 & motor oil like another viewer mentioned and it SEEMED to work. I was able to loosen up the drive shaft(or crank shaft, whatever it was that wasn't turning) put it all back and was able to pull the cord and it wanted to start and then froze up again. Repeated the same steps over and over and got the same results, only this time, after a couple of attempts to start, it was making a metal on metal sound and I figured I was F'ed.Well I was right! When it froze for like the 5th time,I took a ride to a local Toro service shop to get an answer.He said 2 stroke engines are having more trouble than ever with ethanol in the gas! If it was making that metal sound, he could break it down, charge me $50 and then tell me I was F'ed! He suggested only using 89% octane(1 grade above regular gas) and GOOD oil with an FP rating(not the cheap shit from walmart) So I gave it a valiant effort and just when I wanted to write and thank you for saving me $130 and call you a genius,,,I was F'ed!.. thanks anyway

If I pull the spark plug the pull cord pulls all the way out. With the plug installed it does not. Sometimes if I keep trying, it might pull all the way out, and I might get it started, Next time will not pull out. Repair for echo says I need to use it more. It started when I picked it up just fine. A few weeks later back to the same issue. I don't use it every week. Maybe a month will go by before I try it again. Any thoughts?

If you are going to cycle the piston without a spark plug make sure the opening for the plug is cleaned up so nothing ends up falling inside. I would also consider scraping all carbon build up off the exhaust port since it can end up breaking off and scoring the piston when its not running typically during transportation. Just make sure you know the correct way to do this positioning the piston at the top of its cycle exposing the piston skirt only. I sometimes like to just pull the head off the cylinder when doing this to make sure theres no lip inside the cylinder of carbon anyways. I also replace all the gaskets when doing this and check the flywheel and the opposite side of the crankshaft making sure there is no play there. If there is its time for new crankshaft bearings and oiler seals. I would have to use a crankcase splitter tool to get it apart most times and the correct flywheel puller too. You may also want to readjust the L screw on the carb to make sure its not running to lean while attempting unseizing the top and if your removing the cylinder pour a little 2 stroke oil into the crankcase since its already open an new gaskets for the muffler, cylinder, crankcase(assuming your splitting it apart), and carburetor side. I sometimes use a butane torch to burn the muffler clean when its to invasive to open up and scrub clean with steal wool. If you think there is any chance you might not remember how to put it back together take pictures of every step you do disassembling to use as a guide for putting back together. Also Ereplacementparts.com often has diagrams of your item making it easier to figure out what goes back where.

A small amount of Sea foam added to the fuel can help burn out that in places it normally wouldn't otherwise but there is no substitute when cleaning the muffler and exhaust port. I typically use a flat head screwdriver going side to side and having the motor positioned where the inside is above where the muffler normally would be so carbon ends up falling out instead of in. Always put the piston as high as possible since scratches on the bottom don't really effect the compression like they do at the top. When using sea foam go extra rich with the oil mixture and always better to go light instead of trying to do everything to fast and instead killing the carburetor or even worse. An never let the fuel that has sea foam added sit. Use all the fuel with that additive within less than 1 hr then use some regular fuel just to flush out any that might be left just incase. I go with half the recommended amount that the manufacturer of that additive advises. An typically only put enough in with the fuel for it to run less than 10 minutes. It will smoke a bit at first then eventually stop smoking which is the signal that your done using that engine treatment and to pour out the leftover fuel once its gone a short time without any more smoke from the muffler.

Lol. 9 years late. I have a Yard King weed eater 4 Strokes that stop in the middle of job and I can’t pull to restart. I am not sure why. Could be I crank and use it without break in between? Thanks for sharing. I watch another videos where here the Carburetor cleaner and WD4 to loosen. I will try your method first. 👍

@@David-st8te definitely the first thing to check before using one of these small four-stroke engines every time before you use it. I have a couple of them some of them stay pretty full some of them use a good amount of oil. they only hold a very small amount so they can run out pretty quickly within two or three runs if they're using a lot of oil.
