I'd be interested in finding out where you got the new primer bulb from. I'm looking for one and can't find any. Thanks

Homelite weed trimmer bogs down and smothers out quits running

This could be a number of things. Clogged air filter/fuel filter/carburetor/fuel tank lid breather hole, cracked fuel line or primer bulb, or clogged spark arrestor in muffler. Here's some links that will help to change the bulb, fuel cap, fuel lines, rebuild carb, replace spark arrestor, and troubleshoot.

I have a McCulloch I385L trimmer that wont stay running

Try changing the gas to oil mix. You have too much oil in gas. Put more gas in to oil ratio. 25:1 should work. 25 parts oil to 1 liter of gas.
50:1, 50 parts oil to 1 gallon of gas. 4 liters to 1 gallon.
