ow what kind of oil I need to add. I would like to print out the instructions to my tool. I have had trouble since the beginning, getting it to start and then keeping the motor running. Usually I can get started enough times to run through one tank of gas. I thought it might be low on oil as the shaft with the blade now does not want to turn.

Many Ryobi manuals are available from their site: http://www.ryobitools.com/ . The manual for the RY34000, with the X340 Expand-it 4-Cycle Power Head, is here: http://www.ryobitools.com/catalog/4cycle/gas_powered/RY34000 . For this model, the unit comes with 20W50 oil. Continuing to use 20W50 engine lubricant is recommended. However, SAE 30, 10W30, or 10W40 are all acceptable lubricants to use in this product. The direct link to the manual is http://www.ryobitools.com/product_manual/file_url/523/RY34000_841_trilingual.pdf . Additional Expand-it attachment information is here: http://www.ryobitools.com/catalog/expand_it#/overview . The manuals for the discontinued Expand-it products do not seem to have working links today. The appropriate page is http://www.ryobitools.com/discontinued_manuals/ . I hope this helps. Cindy Wells

I have a husqvarna 323L string trimmer. I stored it after running the tank & carb dry for about two years. I fueled it, then started it, & it ran for a minute then died like I turned the switch off. Since it would not restart, I found the fuel filter had broken off the hardened fuel line & it sucked gummy crap out of the tank & into the carb. Failing at cleaning the carb, I finally put a new carb on it & replaced the pump, hoses & filter. It has ran good till this year. I winterized it with stabilizer & left it with a full tank over the winter. The gas in the tank was gone when I got ready to use it this year. I filled the tank with premix, checked for leaks, then started it. It would run fine for about half a tank, start idling poorly (lean) then cutoff & refuse to restart till I refilled the tank. I finally found the tank had cracks & was letting pressure out of the tank & apparently this was causing the carb to lose it’s ability to siphon gas out of the tank. So I replaced the tank which came with new hoses & a filter, which I properly installed to the carb. It cranked right up, but when it runs a half tank, the carb quits sucking gas out of the tank. When I pump to prime the carb, it moves the fuel into the carb, but the pump never gets hard like it does when I prime the carb when the motor is cold. I have to keep refilling the tank, prime, & then it starts & runs until the tank gets about half empty. The new fuel filter is down in the gas tank properly, but It will not run after it shuts off until I refill the tank & prime. I’m baffled. New tank, new hoses, new filter, new carb, & I can find no leaks in the fuel system. It runs strong. The 323L is a two-stroke & it always cranks on the second pull from cold on a full tank. Any ideas?

What type of oil does it use? – Troy-Bilt 4-Cycle Curve Shaft Gas String Trimmer #41ADT41C966
ANSWER : I think all of these 4-stroke trimmers use SAE 30HD oil. I recommend synthetic. If you use synthetic, you can get away with using a multi-viscosity like 10W-30 if you can’t find straight SAE30 synthetic, but don’t use muti-viscosity conventional oil in these machines.
