Carburetor for Echo GT225

After fighting with hard starts and inconsistent idle on my Echo trimmer, swapping in this carb kit completely changed the experience. It went from something I dreaded using to something that just works when I need it. Everything Included Made It Worth It What stood out right away was how complete the kit is. It’s not just a carb—you get primer bulbs, gaskets, fuel line parts, and even a spark plug in many versions of these kits. That saved me from ordering extra pieces separately and sped up the whole repair process. Quick Install, Immediate Results Installation was straightforward. Once everything was bolted up and fuel lines connected, the engine fired up way easier than before. No more excessive priming or pulling 10+ times just to get it going. Performance Feels Like OEM Again The trimmer now idles smoothly and revs clean without bogging down. That’s exactly what you want from a carb—consistent air/fuel delivery so the engine runs right. A properly functioning carburetor is critical since it mixes fuel and air for smooth operation and combustion. Great Value Compared to OEM Compared to buying an original Echo carb (which can cost significantly more), this aftermarket option delivers very similar performance at a fraction of the price. Perfect for Bringing Old Equipment Back to Life If your GT225, SRM225, or similar Echo unit is acting up, this kind of kit is a solid fix. It didn’t just improve performance—it made the tool feel dependable again.

This item is a direct replacement part. I simply unscrewed the old one and attached the new one. A little fuel added. Two pulls of the start rope. And I was in business again. It was just old bad gas getting thick and blocking the jets. For anyone who is jerking the rope. My suggestion is to use only the premix gas you find at Walmart or hardware stores like Loew's or Home Depot. Since I do that now. I've never had another problem with bad gas. The premix I use now comes in a purple label can. It will make your weed eater sing. And its not very expensive. It has an inhibitor in it that stops it from going bad in a years time. I did this fix like 5 or so years ago. Still runs like new. Good luck guys.

My dads Echo trimmer was running like crap...it would start, but would spit and sputter, wouldn't idle nor rev up and would die completely on acceleration. He was told the priming bulb and gas lines were faulty and needed replacement. He purchased a kit at Lowes that contained the fuel lines, priming bulb, fuel line grommet for $18 and had it installed. After replacement, the problem still existed. He has ran gas that contained ethanol, a big no no for small engines since it is very unstable, damages the fuel lines and the metal components in the carburetor. Frustrated, he asked me if I could help him with it. I first checked the screen in the muffler to ensure it wasn't blocked with debris or soot causing it to choke out...a very common on many brands of small engines. It was clearly evident the carburetor needed rebuilt. So I looked up the parts needed to rebuild it, which was nearly $40 at the local small engine repair center. After a little research, I located this kit. I was VERY skeptical of this kit because it contained the carburetor, air filter, gaskets, fuel lines, fuel filter, tank grommet, and spark plug for less than he paid just for the priming bulb and fuel line kit. After looking at the reviews, most of which were very positive, I ordered the kit. With Prime, the kit arrived in 2 days. The carburetor was simple to install which took about 10 minutes. This included installing the new spark plug, grommet and fuel lines, the gaskets and air filter. I purchased new gas [ethanol free] and mixed synthetic 2 cycle oil at the recommended 50:1 ratio and filled the tank. I pushed the priming bulb 3 times, turned the run switch on, applied the choke and pulled the starter cord. It fired on the second pull! I turned the choke off and the trimmer idled perfectly with no further adjustment needed. It accelerated perfectly to full speed and returned to a perfect idle when the trigger was released. The trimmer has been used for over a month [about 20 hours of run time] and runs perfectly with absolutely no adjustments necessary. I've read reviews concerning the fitment of the gaskets and issues with the fuel lines. If you order the correct kit [using the serial number is critical to ensure you get the correct kit], the kit matches up perfectly. Second, the instructions are VERY specific concerning the use of gas containing ethanol...DON'T use it. If you can not find ethanol free gas, use a gas stabilizer made for 2 cycle engines along with the 2 cycle oil. This will offer some protection to the fuel lines and the metal components in the fuel circuit. I have no reservations about recommending this kit. The fit was perfect, installation is very simple, operation is perfect without any further adjustments to the idle or run circuits and the value is outstanding.

Easy installation and good instructions. had no issues.

This carburetor fit my equipment without major issues and started working right away after installation. The engine runs smoother now and starts more easily than before. Installation was straightforward if you have basic mechanical knowledge. All the included parts were helpful, and it seems to be a good replacement for the original unit. It’s not a premium OEM part, but for the price, it does the job well. So far, I’m satisfied with the performance and would recommend it if you need an affordable replacement.

My Echo trimmer was sputtering, dying on acceleration, and refusing to idle which is exactly what happens when ethanol gas wrecks the carb. This full kit costs way less than just the rebuild parts at a small engine shop and everything you need comes in the box including the carb, fuel lines, air filter, and spark plug. Installed it in about ten minutes and the thing fired on the second pull and ran perfectly smooth right away with zero adjustments needed. Just make sure you use ethanol free gas going forward and this kit will last you a long time.

Good enough. Carb part worked fine. Like others mentioned the gasket is wrong. If you use the gasket it looks like it will work, but causes it to run terrible. Also, the vent does not vent well, and causes problems.

I’m so glad my husband gave me the part number for him to order. I almost ordered a different brand that would’ve been $60 and I decided not to say anything to him and order this one instead and it runs like a dream now and I don’t even need to choke it when I eat before I run it by great quality highly recommended.

I ordered two echo carburetters I only got one the other one just had gaskets in it

Good replacement for my ehco trimmer.

Great deal runs like new again
