Why my Remington Trimmer engine will not start?

  Scott ChavezJul 31, 2025
  If your Remington Trimmer engine won't start, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the fuel tank isn't empty and is filled with properly mixed fuel. If that's not the issue, try pressing the primer bulb 10 times until fuel is visible. The engine might be flooded; if so, move the choke lever to Position 3, press the throttle lockout, squeeze the throttle control, and pull the starter rope until the engine starts. Old or improperly mixed fuel (over 30 days old) can also be a culprit, so drain the tank and add fresh fuel. Lastly, a fouled spark plug can prevent starting, so consider replacing it.

How to fix a Remington RM2700 cutting head that will not advance line?
- T
  Tonya PhillipsAug 4, 2025
  If the cutting head on your Remington Trimmer won't advance the line, there are several possible reasons. The cutting head might be bound with grass, so stop the engine and clean it. The cutting head could be out of line, requiring you to refill it with new line. The inner reel might be bound up, so clean the inner reel and outer spool. The cutting head could be dirty, so open it and remove any welded sections. The line might be welded, so rewind it. The line could be twisted, so stop the unit, push the bump knob, and pull the line until 4 inches (102 mm) extends outside the cutting head. Also, there might not be enough line extended, so clean and thoroughly dry the cutting head.

Finally, the idle speed might be incorrectly set, requiring an adjustment.
