Hello

Can you recomend a good repair/maintenance shop for this type of material ?

We are in Najomtien..

Have a nice evening

I've always had good results with the place between the Roong Ruang bus station and Sukhumvit on Pattaya Nua. Sales shop in the front, maintenance/repair shop on the side.

Never heard of paying a deposit ?

I recently took Two trimmers and a lawnmower and only paid on collection. (not that place I hasten to add as I am up country)

Yeah, and 300bht.

Took my strimmer to the local m/c shop, said how much and he replied maybe 100bht.

Which was what he charged me when I collected it 2 days later.

The pump bubble and fuel hoses had rotted.

I took one in that had been discarded for about 5yrs.

Stripped, cleaned

New air filter, plug, ht lead.

New blade.

All checked and running good again = 600 baht .

Semi related questions about maintenance for weed trimmers here?

But first, thank you for posting about repair/ maintenance.

I have a Senix 46cc 4-sroke back pack brush cutter.

what fuel is okay to put in it? The sticker on the tank shows to use E0 or E10, and not to use E15 or E85.

 I don’t know where to buy E0 or E10, or maybe I just don’t know where to look.

 I’m Also looking for where and what trimmer line is best to use. It has a fixed line head and came with some pre-cut lengths of black twisted line but it doesn’t last as long as I think it should.

In my Honda 4 stroke trimmer I use gasahol 91, both 91 and 95 have 10% ethanol which is the same as E10.

As for the trimmer line, it depends on what you're cutting, you could always go up a thickness, (and/or get a new shape).  Round trimmer line lasts longer but rips through the grass and weeds, twisted is better so maybe you just need a bigger diameter.
