Have a newer homelite gas string trimmer. Been hard to start the last few uses. Figure i would try a can of the pre mixed fuel that was on sale at Lowes. My understanding that the ethanol in pump gas is murder in 2-cycle engines. Now you can off set this with special oil added to the gas. But wanted to see the difference, if any, of using pre mixed. I don't have a lot of trimming. Maybe 10-15 min. worth. Filled the tank with the pre mixed. WOW!! It was like a different animal. Started with ease and ran better than new. Absolutely something to be said for pre mixed.
