Hi, i recently was given a husqvarna 223l string strimmer. My brother gave up on lawn care. This is a nice unit but he let gas sit in there 2 yrs. It would not stay running when i fired it up on fresh gas. i took apart the carb, cleaned it but the screen in the carb is so bad it is uncleanable. i put it all back together without the screen and the unit runs perfectly now.
I ordered a new carb, which was only 23.00 vs 20 for a carb rebuild kit with a screen. my question is can i run this trimmer without the screen in place until the new carb gets here? or should i shelve it and wait the possible 2 weeks for the new carb to arrive?
thanks
