This is the parts list but many of the parts are obsolete. you may have to source rubber or PVC hose of the correct diameter.

You just need your model # . You don't have to buy the diaghragm kit you need from Sears. You will need to know the manufacturer of the caburetor. Then, the model # of the carb. Then you will have all you need to order a diaghram kit, and they are not expensive. They normally don't include the bulb, but it can be purchased separately. Or you CAN go the Sears route if you like. Go to www.searspartsdirect.com and type in your info to see if they have the carb kit and part you want.

Try the SEARCH feature on this site. MANY posts have been made about fuel line routing for this and other models (tey are basically all the same). Search for : Weed Eater Fuel Line or Weed Eater Fuel Line Routing. It is there because I have been there and seen it.

The smaller diameter line (fuel supply) goes from the fuel tank (w/filter) to the carb body. Look carefully at the 2 nipples on the carb. You can tell one is slightly larger than the other. Another larger line (purge line) goes from carb body to the right nipple on the primer bulb. Another large line (return line) goes from the left nipple of the primer bulb into the fuel tank. completing the purge circuit. This info pertains to the Craftsman 32cc with Zama carb and may work on the 25cc model as well.

It is most likely a Poulan almost all are. The IPL is the only manufacturer supplied fuel system detail, it lists components, part numbers and very little routing detail. and is usually spread over multiple illustrations.

I think you'll find the short video, a few notes and a typical system most helpful. Any local saw shop can provide replacement hose.

• The hose in the tank with the filter on the free end connects directly to the carburetor input connection.
• If the saw is equipped with a primer bulb, an output line from the carburetor connects to the suction side of the primer (once the bulb is collapsed it draws fuel from the tank through the carburetor to refill as it inflates).
• The pressure side of the primer returns displaced fuel to the tank as it is depressed.

Take lots of notes and a few digital photographs to help with reassembly.

The longer, (and sometimes smaller of the two), fuel line goes from the carburetor to the tank with the fuel filter attached to the end, inside the gas tank.The other line, ( sometimes larger), goes from the primer bulb to just inside the gas tank, about a 1/2 -1 inch inside with coupling attached to the end. Coupling keeps line from pulling out of tank.

Go to sears.com then parts store then type in model no. You should find a parts breakdown hopefully that will help.
