Post engine make, model, serial # & all numbers from engine.
Are you using fresh 93 octane gasoline & adding Stihl 2-cycle oil mixed thoroughly. Most top of the line Outdoor Power Equipment Products will state in their Operators Manual which octane level to use.

Thanks, @Catherine
It's a Stihl FS36 string trimmer wt160-b carb. I have gotten another carb for it and i adjusted the high and low and idol
screws.
I have also gotten a carb rebuild kit for it and installed it. Still it will not run.

Ps. I'm nine sorry for any spelling errors my dad is making me fix small engines and so far, i have made $20-30.
He is not letting me play videogames until i get it running.

Thanks for the help.

Kind Regards Jack.
