Took my weed eater here to be fixed, it had locked up, couldn't pull the cord to get it started. This place claimed we had not used gas/oil blend and said we needed a new engine and it would take a couple months to get one in. We knew we used the proper fuel mixture and therefore did not trust him, we said we did not want him to fix it. He said he would have to charge us $25 to put it all back together (again, seemed sketchy). We paid it, reclaimed the weed eater and took it somewhere else. The other person we took it to said it had clearly NOT been taken apart or checked out and that the problem was a blockage in the carburetor causing the engine to run lean, over heat, and lock up. They got it up and running again without any new parts needed.
