    would that be the fuel pickup not falling to the bottom of the tank where there is fuel to suck?

    it's the luck of the draw with these things. Mine has been retired but I pulled it out the other day and she fired 3rd pull like always.I never had any engine troubles,they're just heavy and the attachments are ****enhausen.

    I was using the chinese thing the other day and the motor just stops every time i turned the trimmer sideways...

    I had this problem a few months ago on the unit I bought a couple of years back.

    The problem was not the fuel pick up. It was the two long screws that secure the carby to the side of the block. They had worked loose and when the unit was operated on its side the carby was falling away from the block, sucking in wayyyyy too much air!

    Tightened the two screws and used a bit of Locktite. Problem cured.

    Check out your unit. It may be the same problem.

    I had the same issue. ANd fixed it the same way. But now it still cuts out when the motor is turned sideways.
    Ive checked the 2 screws and they are tight as a fish.

    After doing a huge hedge today, The hedger attachment sheared the gears off inside the unit and is now Kuput!. I took the attachment apart and found the bolt that moves the main shaft had sheered off....

    happened to me with a cheap pole saw, the seller sent me new gears free of charge - worth asking
