Keith Davis I've pulled that plug out of several echos and other trimmers. The heated small screw driver or small drill bit works great. Just heat and insert and then WAIT about thirty seconds. Once it cools it holds on much better. You can't just heat, insert and start immediately twisting or pulling. Give it a little time to set up.

Didn't realize how bad my weed eater was running until I tried this modification, now I'm getting twice the power at half the throttle I normally use. Thank you!!

Use a drywall screw at an angle it gets it right out..

GREAT JOB! I got my plug out the same way and unscrewed the jet to clean but forgot to screw it in for the baseline setting. Trail and error didn't get it running. I'm going to start at 1 1/2 turns out and adjust. My new Ebat $15 card runs the same as the old one , so I have two carbs to experiment with. Thanks for the video!!

Just grab a drill bit that will fit snugly into the brass plug , the end of the drill bit that fits in the drill ,, NOT the cutting end , after getting a bit that fits snugly into the brass just pop it out sideways !

How do you sync the main meter screw, the idle meter screw and the the throttle barrel positioning screw?

Thanks so much, best video out there for this issue!

I took the carburator off and there is enough of he brass sticking up that I was able to grab the brass with mini channel locks and unthread it.

The brass piece is removable if you disassemble the carb and use a good pair of pliers , like Knipex pliers to remove the plug. I think I might invest in the Echo 2.5mm tool. My problem is the compression and the carburetor itself. Compression is 88 psi. I ordered a new carb so we will see if that's the issue or is it the compression. Spark arrestor and port are very clean. Thanks for the video. I have owned Echo for years with the High Low and Idle screws that are very visible and I wish they would have never changed to these , so called , fixed carburetors

One point no-one mentioned is CARB (California Air Resource Board) has mandated Zero Emission on small equipment requiring all small engines be replaced with battery packs. 2-Cycle has been banned in Calif for many years and now everything under 50HP is outlawed. How long until all states follow their master plan? I saw a Ryobi push mower for 900$ in another video, the replacement battery packs (2) were 219 each.

CARBifornia is gay and semitic communist. Battery powered weeders are trash.

Find the rpm on the user manual or a service manual and use the attached tachometer to set it. Is that so hard to do it ???

OK SO how many turns did you end up on the screw ?? counter or clockwise ?

That TACH will help guide you to optimum high speed jet. Engine can rev to about 9000 rpm max and then enrich to 8000 rpm.

get a paper clip heat the tip to red hot plunge it into the plug let it cool then it pulls right out .

would this boost torque?

Always take the crappy factory carb off of the 225 and buy a 30$ carb off Amazon

Could just be idle screw adjustment. Otherwise I'd check for a lean condition

I know you’re limited on space but I would move that hour meter away from the back where you have it. It’s an air cooled engine forced by the fan and exits out the back. The engine could overheat.

If you remove that plug. Does it void out the warranty.

Drill into it a bit with a 1/16th bit and use a small self-tapping screw and yank. No sense in getting red hot shit near your fuel.

On a 225 it’s just a slotted screw behind the plug. On the 2620 there’s no plugs, the high and low adjustments have to be made with a “micro d” tool. I was lucky enough to find the Echo adjustment set with a “micro d” tool and a “single d” tool but they’re kinda pricey.but well made.

My dad uses maruyama. He tears stuff up but they’re still running strong. Changing the grips and throttle cable out on two of them right now 😂

I think these were added so they could be sold in California.

You have to love the EPA. Is the equipment being run at sea level or at 7000 feet? Makes big difference for the carb adjustment for a carb that can not be adjusted. No, one size does not fit all. I have lived at both elevations. Thanks to you, I now know how to adjust them.

Then again not big fan of our Stihl dealers here. Fuel intake hose rotted out on my Stihl chainsaw. They gave me the wrong part. Took same saw to another dealer for a tune up. Do not have RPM meter that can read 13,0000 RPM. They replaced the spark plug. Used 2 cycle gas, then starting fluid. Would not start and lost compression. Let it sit for a year or two thinking I screwed up the cylinder. For S&Gs I tried to start it again. Good compression. Think the rings got stuck. Still would not start. Checked the spark plug. No spark and plug was clean as a whistle. Engine never ran with that new plug they put in. Put new plug in and ran great. Moral of the story. Price does not guarantee good results.

Sorry to hear that, the only other thing I thought of was a small perhaps dental pick that you could pierce through the plastic plug and then hook it from the back and pull it out.
