    On the FS56 weedeater

    Been going thru the love hate relationship with this stick.If you run this hard as in edging,and it gets hot and cuts off,is this normal? I'm thinking i need to adjust the idle speed or the throttle speed.Otherwise it's a very versatile tool.Took it to the shop once,and yea they set the...

    Westinghouse pressure washer

    Got the WPX 3200.Nicely built. Looks like a toy. It's not!!! Plenty of power. Easy to assemble, and even easier to use. Takes a whole gallon tho'.Best $300 i've spent in a while. Notwithstanding my Stihls.

    Westinghouse pressure washer

    Actually,you are 100% correct!!!! But I was looking for like-minded folk who may have OWNED 1 for recommendations or demerits before I pay for it.

    Westinghouse pressure washer

    So I've been in the market for a pressure washer..decided on a Simpson 3200,but since I'm not gonna need it much,I've decided to do a Westinghouse 3200.Price was a main factor in case I manage to mess it up,and I will.Simple easy to use.Plenty of power.What say you all?

    Is the Stihl Motomix 50:1 Fuel worth it?

    Stihl FS56

    I feel so foolish,but relieved.After still dealing with my weedeater just cutting off and/or slowing down and stopping,I decided to do some adjusting myself.So I adjusted the idle speed and lo-speeds.Afterwards cleaning off the spark plug.Here's the A HA!! moment...spark plug was loose as a...

    I too have a BG50.I also have only used trufuel,for every 2 cycle with no problems.But I may give Opti 2 a try.

    Stihl 2-in-1 sharper

    I've got the MS 170.A good saw for novices like me.But using that jig has me wary.Although I've yet to use the saw since "trying" to sharpen it.What do y'all think about the 2-in-1?

    Stihl FS56

    Answer:Took it to the dealer,told them the problem.That was Mon. May 15.I'm thinking I'd have it back Fri. or Sat.Called me Tues.It was ready.Just needed to adjust the carb.Best $10 I ever spent.

    Stihl FS56

    Hey all,new dilemma.Lately my "stick" has developed an attitude.As I am using her to weed eat,she'll cut off like it ran out of gas.This happens after about a good 10-15 mins in.Fuel filter is ok,new plug & air filter.Have ALWAYS used tru fuel in it.Sounds like a carb issue?

    correct string for Stihl FS 56RC Trimmer

    Are you trying unload any of them? I'm interested.
  43. mikehouse

    On fuel and string

    I have FS 56 as well.I see you said you put gasoline in.Did you mix it 50:1? I personally use Trufuel.Pre mixed with 93 NON ethanol fuel.Costs more but it's recommended.No muss,no fuss.Pour and go.I also prefer Husqvarna Titanium line.Size.95.You should do well with this combo.
