Your trimmer will start but not run. Very vague so we'll try and come at this from a couple of angles. First and foremost. Did you replace the in tank fuel filter? with 2 cycle this is a frequent culprit on starting and running issues due to the fuel/oil mix often gums the filters. Second: Have you looked at the spark plug? chances are its nasty brush clean with a wire brush, spray a bit of carb cleaner on it, dry it and check the gap. (gap info should be in the users manual) Will not run as in Idle. Could very easily be the idle control screw needs adjustment. this should be located on the carb very often in the vicinity of the mixture screws if the machine starts and you can keep it going with the trigger then insert a (usually phillips) screwdriver and gently start turning right until the screw catches the throttle then back off until it dies turn right 1/2 turn and test. If the unit will not run at all beyond the above then its very likely needing service. Most small 2 cycle tools use very fine diaphragms to actuate the carburetor and they notoriously get fatigued or get "crispy" over time leaving the carb needing a clean-out and new diaphragms and needles/seats installed. Good Luck

How do you adjust a ryobi string trimmer carbureter?
I have a CS26 string trimmer that had a major problem from the start. It would eventually start after many pulls and then and run only at high speed. I would also see some leakage inside the cover. A neighbor suggested that this was a symptom of a vacuum leak somewhere. When he checked he found that the screws holding one of the engine cover plates were loose. After tightening the screws and much fiddling with the adjustments, the trimmer now appears to run OK and doesn't immediately stall when you release the trigger as it was doing.

How do you pull more string out of trimmer?
This is actually easier than it first appears. # Line up the two arrows on the outer-spool and inner-reel. # ## This opens the channels from the feed-holes to the locking holes. # Remove any line left in the locking holes. # Feed new line into feed holes up though the channels until you have enough to place the ends of the lines into the locking holes. # Place line ends into the locking holes and pull tight. # Wind the inner-reel counter-clockwise, taking up the new line. Pause occasionally to pull each line tight. Leave about 4 inches at each end.
