Why my Shindaiwa C230 Trimmer engine does not start?
- DDean ReedAug 5, 2025
If your Shindaiwa Trimmer engine isn't starting, the fuel might be stale, contaminated, or the fuel/oil mixture might be incorrect. Refill the trimmer with fresh, clean, unleaded gasoline with a pump octane of 87 or higher, mixed with Premium 2-cycle mixing oil at a 50:1 gasoline/oil ratio.
