  Your Southland Trimmer engine might not be starting due to several reasons. First, ensure the ignition switch is in the ON position. If the engine is flooded, refer to the Starting a Flooded Engine section in the OPERATION section. Check if the fuel tank is empty and, if so, fill it with the correct fuel mixture. A faulty spark plug could also be the culprit, so try replacing it. Also, inspect the fuel line for any kinks or splits, repairing or replacing it as necessary. If none of these steps work, the carburetor might need adjustment, and you should contact a qualified service center.

  If your Southland Trimmer engine isn't accelerating, lacks power, or stalls, start by clearing any grass or debris wrapped around the trimmer head. Check the air filter and clean it if it's dirty. Inspect the spark plug; clean or replace it if it's fouled. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the carburetor may need adjustment, or there could be carbon build-up on the muffler outlet screen. In these cases, it's best to contact a qualified service center. Low compression could also be the cause, which also requires professional attention.

  If your Southland Trimmer engine is running hot, the fuel mixture might be incorrect. Refer to the Mixing Fuel / 2-Cycle Oil section in the OPERATION section for guidance.

If the problem continues, the carburetor may require adjustment, or there could be carbon build-up on the muffler outlet screen, both of which necessitate contacting a qualified service center.
