If the string trimmer engine won't start, the carburetor might be clogged or have a restriction. If old fuel was left in the string trimmer for a long time some of the volatile ingredients may have evaporated, leaving a thicker, stickier product that is more like varnish. This sticky fuel can clog up the small jets and ports in the carburetor causing the engine to not start. Clean the carburetor with carburetor cleaner. If that isn't effective, rebuild or replace the entire carburetor.
