Back when I was in construction we would have screw guns "walk" off jobs. I would wait about 5 days and go buy back our tools from the local pawnshops. They had to repair them before they could be sold so I would get back my screw guns repaired and good as new for about a third of the cost of a new one.

Living beside a recycling centre most of my life in the UK we got a LOT of free stuff after the place closed for the day. It's impossible now as it took them decades to finally install cameras which are monitored 24/7 by the council. When we were kids we got to play with hundreds of 'ride-on' powerwheels & peg perego cars and bikes, many of them premium 2 seater types which were thrown away because the batteries were so expensive to replace.. We simply took batteries from the battery pile and charged them at home in the shed which included fire alarm batteries and small car batteries and powered the vehicles off them. We played destruction derby with them, ran them on 24v until the motors popped and simply went up to the dump again and got more. Fun times as a kid and fond memories.

At the end it's dark and mustie is loading up that jeep 🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤪

Mr Mustie, I want to say to you how important you have become to, I'm sure, so many of us. While I can only speak for myself, while I realize the difference between reality and imagination, you evoke real emotions for many of us. I truly feel that you are a friend I could visit with. My father operated a small engine clinic during the 7's near Amarillo. It was a part time job for him because the little town was too small to fully support him. He became a snapper dealer and when I would visit him, his shop was full of new mowers getting prepped, and older ones getting repaired. So when I watch your video's I can almost smell and feel the environment. I went away and got involved in engineering, so I didn't get to spend that much time "wrenching"...but I still miss it. Thank you for your energy, time and your dedication to us.

I fought with an old McCullough weed wacker for years. The only thing I learned from it was how far I could throw it. About 50 feet out to the street. I waited about 20 minutes until it was mysteriously gone then went and bought the Echo that I have now and never had a lick of trouble with.

I feel your pain. Can rebuild an engine, but I’ll be damned if I can figure out how to put on the damn line on a weed eater

I had a 2-stroke Ryobi string trimmer. 2 seasons, the lines split. I bought the 6$ line replacement kit, spent 4hrs trying to coax those lines into the tank, video after video, special "forceps". I junked it, bought electric, 100ft of cord... 12yrs later...not a problem. Ah, to the engineer who designed the fuel system and spec'd the plastic for it...what can I say. I have a 22yr-old Tecumseh 4-stroke lawnmower, not one fuel issue or oil issue. Not one. Every cable is busted, wheels are bare, belts cracked. It still starts and works.

I had one of these homelite (Home Depot special) trimmers around 11 years ago when I did lawns on the side after high school. The bottom cap on mine was reverse threaded so I was sure something awful was going to happen to yours since you were breaking it loose counter-clockwise. Glad to see it's a runner, mine broke the filter weight off too and I never had the tools to dial in the carb so it made its way to the giveaway pile too after a few years of good service.

Great video sir. Been binge watching your videos. I learned when putting new line on a weed eater is to cut a piece of line, then stick each end in the holes. Then wind both sections at once while keeping an eye on the length, then cut string in half. And then put line in the holes of hub and snap in place. It took me a while to figure out how easy it makes it..

just imagine the original owner with his weed whacker trying to use it then thinking, "damn it, fuel line broke... I got a spare in the garage, i'll drop the whacker here and go get it....." Mustie "WAHOO!!!!!FREE STUFF!!!!!"

True story: It's already grass cutting time in Eastern PA so yesterday (4/25) I was mowing and trimming and the string trimmer died, lack of fuel (primer wouldn't function). Figured I'd repair it today. Woke to watch this video and thought "Hum, I wonder?" Sure as s&^t, the stone filter fell out when I drained the fuel. I ended doing exactly what you did, only difference was I had picked up a fuel line repair kit at Home Deepthroat while out this morning. It was a rerun for me!

Thank you Mustie for keeping some of us sane during lockdown! Have you ever picked up something by the roadside, taken it home, found out that the fix was so simple that it didn't even deserve a video, and taken the fettled item back to where you got it, rang the doorbell, and said "Here ya go, fella, fixed it for ya!"?

Thanks for having us over to hangout with you bud👍👍✌️

Thank you Mustie1 for your great videos. They help me when I cannot sleep at night due to chronic pain. I am entertained by your commentary and learn a lot about 4 strokes, I was just a 2 stroke guy. My tips are B&S recoil starter, rope replacement, make a small notch in the pulley wheel outside top edge for the cord to fit in, makes it easy to turn (preloaded rope wheel) for tensioning the spring. Bend the metal tab out at the exit hole to make it easier to thread the cord out, I bend the tab back. I only wind on one side/hole of trimmer cord. One works fine for me as the trimmer head turns so fast, makes me wonder why we are conditioned by makers to use two? I realise you do both sides for resale. PS please give Lilly a treat for me, don't see her much anymore in your shop and miss her.

I thought I would find this one boring, not really interested in weed wackers. But I'm glad to know of the 2 stroke carb adjustment tools. I never heard or seen anything about them. I'm sure you could go 4 or 5 years without yard sales or free piles, and still have plenty to work on! LOL! There's an antique boat motor for one, the Lambo kit car, and I forget what all else. I've seen probably 95% of your videos, and it's interesting to see the evolution of how you do things. Those Turnin Rust boys have much better quality video equipment, but they only describe vaguely how the fix things. You give us all the details and broad background. Definitely like your approach much better. Keep up the great work!!

I remember when I used to go into the city on the Long Island railroad that the guys who worked in the train station who were responsible for keeping the platforms clear of snow used to have a version of this that instead of a weed wacker it had these finned horizontal rollers that were sweepers and they were about 2.5 feet wide and they would walk side by side the length of the platform and use the sweepers to push the snow off as it accumulated and they’d go back and forth from platform to platform and they actually worked at keeping the snow from building up. You should see about converting this to a sweeper, and I think you’ll get a lot more use out of it

You have to change the fuel lines regularly on those trimmers just like you have to do with the primer bulb as they crack and won't prime or run without those problems being fixed. It is good that you was able to fix the problems with the trimmer yourself and now you have one to use around your home.

Your free piles are vastly better than mine here. I've never seen some of that stuff in a free pile!

There I was, just stopped to take a leak and SOB my weedwacker is on KZread.

you may have ripped off the mans weed wacker as his teenage son left it there as he was using it LOL

Or the teenage son saw Mustie and thought "yes I can get out of chores and let Mustie take it away and claim it was stolen"

Guy just put his trimmer down to go take a pee. Came back and it was gone. Lesson here take your trimmer with your when you have to pee.

I like the variety of videos you are making. Does not have to be the same job all the time.

Ahh, the weedwacker. Ruiner of weekends, destroyer of men. My lifelong enemy.

We want them to have to buy $10 in tools just to turn them. Joe, just how f'd up can we design this thing?"

My mate give me a strimmer the other day and said it's not ran for 3 years so I stripped it down and cleaned the carb out and got it going wot a great feeling made my day that thanks to you mustie1 👍

Thank you soo much for being so entertaining and informative. i was able to get a snowblower running, that noone could figure out. the primer line was dryrotted and you could not get the carb primed. then i was able to successfully tune the carb in and she "purrs"

That was real nice of you the man lays it down to go do something you come along and steal the damn thing just for a video

Thank you sir for sharing your expertise I was wondering if there is any kind of sealant that prevents the fuel from leaking out around the fuel lines from the tank itself ?

I bought a Homelite chain saw, it looks new like that trimmer in the video, because I only used it two times and now it leaks gas like a sieve. I’m thinking maybe the summer heat in the shed caused the lines to shrink up a bit? I don’t know....but it’s unusable as is. I was also wondering if there was a gas resistant sealant.....but it looks like I’ll have to try to change the gas lines.

In radio control airplanes we call that weighted fuel filter a "clunk". And by the way, thank you for your channel. I don't have a lawn, a mower, a VW, a moped, or an ATV but here I am binge watching for hours and hours. Guess it is because even though I am alone in this virus thing, you make me feel like I'm hanging out with someone so thnaks :) - Lauren

Mustie, I have to say, you have way more patience than I do when it comes to the 2 stroke stuff lol. 😎👍 Excellent job!
