My 3 year old string trimmer won't start. Recently I have replaced the carburetor, fuel lines and filter and coil and spark plug. Now it's back to not running. It seems to have low compression . I have had 3 of these type trimmers in the last 5 years. This one has lasted the longest. Should I be getting more life out of these? They are $250 units from Tractor Supply. I do use them hard including using the 3 plastic blade brush cutters. I use 87 octane gas and Husqvarna 50 to 1 oil mix. I'm just wondering everybody's experience. Do I need to buy a higher quality machine?
