Could be that the threads are stripped on the plug or the head where the plug is screwed in. Or maybe it's the wrong plug..

To fix a weed eater with a stripped spark plug hole, you can use a spark plug thread repair kit, which typically includes a tap and inserts designed to create new threads for the spark plug. First, clean the area around the hole, then tap it to create new threads. Next, insert the threaded insert according to the kit instructions, ensuring it’s securely in place. Finally, replace the spark plug and check for a proper fit to ensure a good seal.
