Hello, had to take the Engine cover off, took muffler cover off, took air filter off, Remove carburetor, insulator, took screws out of the head, Remove the head Gasket, clean the piston up removed old piston rings, put new piston rings on oiled Piston, piston cylinder. Put it all back together. Runs perfect, got power like it did when it was new. By the way, first time I have ever did that before. Job was so simple. PS if I ever have to do it again I will replace piston and put a new Cylinder head on, with new piston rings. DonGÇÖt think I will have to ever do that. But itGÇÖs a simple job, that Weed eater was $300.30 dollars. So rebuilding lot cheaper then buying a new one. Good luck with your fix. God Bless Mike
