look on the engine id plate and it should tell you what the displacement is. the weedeater trimmers tend to advertise different cc's than what the engine actually is. eg: the box will say 21cc and it will actually be a 25cc.
if you have the 25cc, some porting and converting it to either EI or GGL (gas glow mix) will provide a light engine with decent power. if porting and modifying isnt your thing, i would look for a homelite or echo.

ORIGINAL: aero nut
If it's a 15 cc it's to small for any application in r/c planes.

I basically stripped the engine from the trimmer arm and took the plastic covering off. I have a bit of cleaning up to do so i can find that ID tag. Thanks for your help.

it should be on the plastic parts that you took off. it is a sticker, so it might be long gone.
try the poulan website and search for that model number, something should come up.
