  If your Poulan Pro Trimmer engine won't start, make sure the ON/OFF switch is in the ON position. Other possible causes include a flooded engine (refer to “Starting a Flooded Engine” in the Operation Section), an empty fuel tank (fill it with the correct fuel mixture), a faulty spark plug (install a new one), or fuel not reaching the carburetor (check for a dirty fuel filter and replace it, or inspect the fuel line for kinks or splits and repair or replace it). If none of these steps work, the carburetor may require adjustment, and you should contact an authorized service dealer.

  If your Poulan Pro Trimmer engine lacks power, won't accelerate, or dies under load, it might be due to a dirty air filter (clean or replace it) or a fouled spark plug (clean, replace, and regap it). In some cases, the carburetor may require adjustment, or there could be carbon build-up on the muffler outlet screen. For these issues, or if the compression is low, contact an authorized service dealer.
