Fuel Filter Replacement On A String Trimmer

This blog is a step-by-step instructions for replacing the fuel filter on a string trimmer. The most common reasons for replacing the fuel filter is if it is clogged, causing the engine to run poorly, only run for a few seconds, or not run at all.

Replacement

Before you replace the fuel filter on your string trimmer, you need to first make sure the engine has cooled.
Step 1: Remove the wire and boot from the spark plug to prevent the engine from accidentally starting.
Step 2: Unthread the gas cap and pull the retainer out of the tank. Now use a wire with a hook to pull out the fuel line and filter. Slide off the retaining ring and pull off the old filter from the line.
Step 3: Install the new fuel filter by pushing it into place on the fuel line. Secure the filter with the retaining ring and gently reinsert the fuel line and filter back into the tank. And you have to make sure there are no restrictions in the line.
Step 4: Insert the gas cap retainer into the tank then thread the cap on and tighten. Reattach the wire and boot to the spark plug and your string trimmer should be ready for use.
