Several times now it has not been the carb. Trimmer, hedges chain saws. Runs fine the first year then trouble starting and eventually stupid working altogether. Each time it ended up being the spring spark plug clip. The darn thing has a bend where the wire in the clip pokes through the insulation in the spark plug wire. The problem arises when the piercing misses the wire in the cable. Removing the cable from the plug a few times dislodged the connection and caused the failure to start. It was fixable without replacing the ignition coil. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
