I have a problem with my WeedEater mx550 Gas Trimmer. When i Start the engine it's runs for few mins then shuts off. I have the right Mixture for the Weedeater. I have rebuild the Engine and i dont seen any problems. And i know it was a carb. does anyone know why?. I had that weedeater almost 5 year's i have changed the spark plug alest every year and also the Fuel Fliter.

How do you know it's the carb? Does it start right back up? Does it have spark after it dies? What did you do to rebuild the engine?
