There is a slightly easier way of getting the lines in which attaching a tag wire to end of the taper tubing and pulling the line thru the tank openings. Most time you don't even need to lube the lines and if you use the regular two fuel mix.
Here is picture of the wire is attached.
Obtain the proper size fuel lines...remove the old lines, paying close attention to routing...cut the lines at a sharp angle on the end...use tire dressing to lubricate the lines..it is very slick...and push the lines into the holes in the tank...use a pair of forceps to pull the lines through...you might have to clamp the line and twist the forceps and wind the line around the tip to pull them through..
just cut the lines so the filter is at rest on the bottom of the tank farthest from the cap...the line near the primer bulb either just gets cut at an angle or gets a plastic fitting in the end..
WHAT IS THE PLASTIC FITTING ON THE END OF THE PRIMER do. The primer bulb stays in when I prime it. Is the end of primer tube covered with gas in the tank?
The plastic fitting is there to just keep the line from slipping out of the tank.
Since the primer is staying suck in there a couple possibles. 1] the lines at carburetor are connected backwards or 2] If the primer is the build in type if primer assemble check valves or the internal filter screen are clogged.
