Reinstalled tube to engine.
Connected throttle cable and ground wire.
Installed gear head spacer and cover blade and installed new speed feed head.
Started rig ht up and ran like new.
Was a free trimmer so rebuilding it for my lawn care business made perfect sense. Spent $70 to have a $300 weed eater. ECHO ENGINES GO THE DISTANCE. just do maintenance and you can run them for years and years. One of mine is 12 years old and the other is 15 yrs old. Run them 6 days a week.
