    Question:
    I have a 128LD trimmer and it will not idle. It runs good and cuts fine but it will not idle. I've rebuilt the carb, replaced the fuel lin and will start easy if I hold the throttle wide open. What can I do to get it to idle?

      Did you set the metering lever correctly or just installed the one that came in the kit?

        I did set it.  If it is too low will it allow it to run and not idle?

          Yes as it would lean out at idle but you can tune out the lean mixture on the high side.
