Why is my Echo HCA-2620 engine hard to start or not starting at all?

If your Echo Trimmer engine is hard to start or won't start, possible causes include a fuel strainer or fuel line obstruction (clean or replace), a fuel mixture that is too rich (open choke, clean or replace air filter, adjust carburetor), the stop switch being OFF or an electrical problem (turn switch to ON), or an incorrect spark plug gap, a carbon-covered plug, a fuel-fouled plug, or a defective plug (adjust to 0.65mm or 0.026 in., clean or replace plug). If these steps do not solve the issue, take your Echo Trimmer to your Echo dealer.
