This is may be a Weed Eater or Poulan brand since these two and perhaps others used that name. I assume you are asking about a gasoline powered trimmer? They are all very similar in that they have small engines with very small passages through the carburetor. The usual problem is fuel. Either there is none because gasoline gums up those small passages because of improper maintenance and storage with fuel in or there could be too much fuel from attempts at starting by pressing the primer bulb too many times. Take the spark plug out. If it appears to be wet the problem is too much fuel. Replacing the plug with a new one is the best solution, then try starting it again. If the plug is dry you will need to have the carburetor cleaned. This is a job for a professional or a do-it-yourselfer with a lot of time on his hands.

Can a weedeater be started with a drill?

Yes it can. I've done it when I hurt my back and couldn't start them normally. Just take the recoil off and get the right size socket. Make sure the socket will come off easily or when the weedeater starts it will turn faster than the drill and may hurt you.
