Hello Joe, thank you for writing. Is it spinning as strongly as it once once and just not cutting? Or is it spinning but just not as strongly as before? Is the Trimmer Line feeding out? We look forward to hearing back from you.

Broken upper drive shaft. The only thing I need is the rotating, flexible cable that goes inside the upper drive shaft assembly. Does that have it's own part number, or do I need to buy the whole upper drive shaft assembly. Upper drive assembly: approx 60 dollarsTB22EC string trimmer: approx 100 dollarsSo for 40 dollars more I can replace the whole trimmer?

I was having a terrible time with the original bump head on this trimmer. I bought a new universal head. Same issue, string does not come out when I bump it. When I am out of string, I have to take the whole unit apart & hand feed the string into the holes. Is there a fixed line head available for this model & is that easier to deal with?
Hello Michelle,Thank you for your question. The original bump head knob for your model has been replaced with a new replacement part from Troy-Bilt directly for your model, the replacement part number is 791-153066B. We hope this helps!

Williamfor model number tb22
Hello William and thanks for writing.Doesn't sound like piston and ring problem. Sounds more like the flex shaft that connects to the engine may have an end that is worn not allowing for the extra load when you connect the attachments. Check the ends of the top flex shaft.We do carry other spare parts for similar units unit such as yours Part # 753-06175.Good Luck with your repair
