6. Installed fuel tank guard/shield.

Fuel Filter:

Fill fuel tank with fresh fuel/oil mixture.

Echo Trimmer had become hard to start, wouldn't run consistently, and died often.

Installed the carb repair kit, new tank grommet, new fuel filter, and tank vent. Had to adjust the high and low adjustments a bit, but now it starts and runs like a new one!
