    Purchased Carburetor rebuild kit and installed carburetor the rebuild kit to include gaskets, spring, needle valve and associated parts. All the fuel lines and the primer bulb replaced
    Trimmer still stalls after about 10 seconds. I replaced the sparkplug with a D8J, the original was a RD8J. The throttle trigger and cable are working smoothly. I've cleaned Carburetor, exhaust and spark arrestor.
    I have a McCulloch D152 Weed trimmer. Sat for a few year, cleaned carburetor. Replaced sparkplug, fuel lines and primer bulb which were all dry rotted or brittle.
    The trimmer will start, run for a few seconds then stalls. Any tips???

    Thanks

    Fuel starvation. Clean everything. When you're sure it's all correct from tank to carb, check bowl is filling. If all good and the fault still exists first thought is tank breather and next is stator gap/dirt. Good luck, it can be infuriating!

    Did the kit provide a small screen ? make sure that screen is clean, and replace the fuel filter.
    That screen catches every thing, If using compressed air you also need a tooth brush, and make sure not to blow the screen across the shop, it will never be found.
