The fuel line is total, broken in several places. Need a new line and the instruction how to replace it? I've stopped in the middle of cutting the rest of the tree and need HELP. Thanks, Solomon
Hi szeldovich
You can pick up fuel line at any small engine shop/supply house.
One trick to insert the fuel line into the tank is to fold it the end to make it smaller than the hole in the tank...also put a little wd40 or vaseline on it to make it easy to pull/push.
Always insert more fuel line into the tank than is needed, as you have to reinsert the fuel filter back into the line and pull it into the tank again.
Here is a picture of how to route the fuel lines.
Please take time to rate me

Testimonial: "I watched the video (link below) how to replace the line and filter and even it was for another make and model it was helpful. I've ordered fuel line and filter from Amazon and attached the line quite fast but had problem to pump fuel to carburetor. I've punched primer bulb multiple times and tried to start. Finally it's started and worked just fine. Thanks a lot."

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

SOURCE: Just replaced fuel lines and
Line from fuel filter goes directly into the inlet of the carburetor and the line from the snap in bulb that is marked "in" attaches to the other outlet connector on the carb. Last is the long side of the bulb goes to the return on the gas tank. The snap in bulb sucks the gas but not directly from the filter hose, it does this through the carb as if it were trying to not only **** in the fuel but also removing the air trapped in the carb. You'll notice that the bulb has a **** side and a discharge side, and the **** side goes directly to the carb outlet connector. I tried to make this a clear as possible, and I hope it helps.
