grommet and hoses for toro trimmer

Postby 38racing » Sun Aug 06, 2017 5:58 pm

model 53992 or 53993
edit correction model 51992 ...
apparently you have to buy the entire tank. Cheapest I've found is $18 cdn +
+tax and shipping from USA.
My Canadian source is a 'Call Us'. not a good sign.
The unit that I have seems to consume too much gas so I assume it's leaking. The primer to tank hose was actually 2 hose joined and grommet is cracked. Maybe will see if I can do one line and seal-all the grommet and see if I can pinpoint any fuel loss.

I had to loosen carb to get at primer to switch hose. Back together and it won't fire , not even on carb cleaner. I have spark. It ran fine yesterday. Ugh.

since plug appeared wet I put a new one in. still no fire so I loosened carb mounting bolt , pulled carb out slightly, then back in and tightened again. so I got it started. ran fine. significant leak around the grommet.

Grommet arrives tomorrow. This trimmer has the rotary carb. Instructions to start say prime 8x, depress trigger fully, pull 4 times with choke fully closed, then choke to half and pull until starts, max 6 pulls. If I do that it won't start and I find a wet plug. Three times I have gone out and with no primes and no choke and trigger fully pulled it starts on first pull and runs fine.
