Fixing a Titan Strimmer multi tool that bogs or will not stay running

Thank you so much - I have a new allotment with truly gigantic overgrowth but no tools and no £ - found a discarded, barely used Titan multi-tool in the back of the shared shed with missing parts, not starting, not running any attachments. Found you. I learned how the components work, how to troubleshoot, change and tune. I was so intimidated and so desperate - now I am neither after only about £10 for the oil and parts, my landscaping dreams are in full swing 🙂. Never touched one before let alone fixed anything with a motor. Thanks again, Lady Tek-Li.

Just done another for a neighbour Mick. You really are a superstar. Thank you, Joe❤

Titan seems to be prone to that, I've had a few titan tools but on my brushcutter the exact same thing happened,but I didn't bother me hole to fix it 😂luckily it had warranty.

Once those titans start making screaming noises then you know it’s gonna be kaput.

Hi Mick I'm new to the channel, and new to titan multitool, I've just bought a second hand machine and I was thinking of doing a service on it, until this moment I had no knowledge, but now I'm more than happy to give it a go, you've probably saved me a load of money and we all like saving, thanks Mick great video. 10 stars from me.

Nice fix Mick thanks for the tip on cutting a slot in the screw 👍👍👍👍

Nice fix son had his titan for as bout five years still going strong

Nice to see you working on something else besides Mower got the right man on the job

Gem of a machine now ain't it 👍 Well done sir !

Thanks Sir Mick.

Nice job Mick, i love a Titan Cheap machines but easy to maintain.

Well done Mick, nice repair.

I bought a set of those carb screwdrivers years ago then I got a Hyundai jobbie in for repair and found out there's a whole new bunch of adjusters in the game and had to buy another different set, I've now got about 15 different types 😮

Nice idea to cut a slot in that trim screw!

In the instruction manual for many of these throw away machines, it says after 5 tank full of fuel to get the carb tuned, but you need tools that are shaped like Pacman, D or double D to adjust the mix instead of a Philips or flat blade, so people just chucked them as they couldn't adjust them. I picked up many like that and a quick tweak and it runs sweet. 😁

Nice one Mick

Hi Mick, great video and nice to see you doing a two stroke. A couple of pointers. I always change the fuel first if it is priming okay. Personally. On that Chinese machine, with a single ‘High’ trim screw and only being 3 years old. I would have tried adjusting the jet screw first. If that fails. Check the turn setting. Remove the needle and squirt a bit carb cleaner in there and allow to dwell for a few minutes. Try and then adjust. If that fails. I would plonk in my ultrasonic tank. For a session. Trust me. I have been doing this for many years. I only use neat WD40 in the ultrasonic tank. Pop the carb in. Prime it submerged, so it is full. And set it away. After half an hour. Pump the primer a few more times to refresh. And set away for another 30 mins. Or until it gets to about 80’C. I find this works most of the time. Generally taking 2T carburettors to bits ends in gasket tearing. So I only do as a last resort, with a rebuild kit to hand. But this method normally works. Trust me! My tank takes about 2L. A gallon of WD is about £28 Used to be cheaper. I only refresh a couple times a year. Filter the used WD and use in a spray bottle to lube allsorts, so it doesn’t go to waste. Cheers David.
