I have a Husqvarna 128CD trimmer that has spark and gets gas but doesn't fire at all. Spark is observed with the plug out and grounded to the engine. I have put gas in the carb and even sprayed a little ether and can't get it to fire. When I brought it home from cleaning out a storage container at work, it fired and ran, but only with choke on. Maybe I couldn't get it to restart then. I left it for a while (weeks) and now it doesn't start at all. I don't have a compression tester or a spark tester to see if it sparks with the plug installed. Or if I have them, I can't find them. Any thoughts on this anyone?
This was probably bought new and used around a small townhome development under construction several times. I don't know how much or how hard it was used. There was also another trimmer of a different brand that had been left also. With a little carb adjustment it runs good but the trimmer head has the attachment bolt broken off.
Thanks in advance.
