Hey everyone!

I just picked up this non-running Stihl FS130R Professional grade trimmer. One of the issues I came across was that it takes an unusual amount of strength to pull start the engine with the pull starter. It truly is difficult to pull over.

This is a Stihl 4-Mix engine which is a 4 stroke engine, using mixed gas. As such, there are valves inside the engine that need to be adjusted.

Follow along as I diagnose the issue and correctly adjust the valves on this Stihl Pro trimmer!

Cheers,

-Dave
