Pressed prime bulb, pulled starter rope and check for leaks. Everything checked out ok. Problem solved 👍🏼

Remove old parts and replaced with new parts

The carb rebuild kit solves the not running correctly. The grommet fixed the fuel leak out of the fuel tank when it was on the ground.

I have a 20-year old Echo GT-180 weed eater that finally died from using gasahol in it, including a leak from the fuel cap.

Essentially, I rebuilt the carburetor and replaced all the fuel lines, including the tank vent, filter and the seal in the cap. Needed the scale to check the needle arm height, which needed a slight tweak.

Be sure to lay out all of the removed seals and gaskets as the carb comes apart to be sure the the new parts get installed in the correct order and orientation.

Once all together, a couple of pulls to prime the carb (it has no priming bulb) and it started right up, and runs like new! No fuel leaks either! Only ethanol-free fuel from now on!!!

Drained fuel mix
