You could have a clogged tube from the primer into the carb, but it also sounds like the fuel tank is overfilled.

Easy way to install fuel line and primer bulb return line into gas tank

Chainsaw fuel lines enter the gas tank from holes in top of tank. They are sized for a tight fit to prevent leakage. Make it easy on yourself when pushing the line through the tank by cutting a long lengthwise taper cut with razor knife 3 inches or longer to easily feed through that tight hole. Once started you will then have to grab it through the gas cap hole with needle nose pliers, then cut the tapered end flush and add fuel filter. Readjust inside length by pulling from above, then cut to length to upper carb fitting. If connecting to primer bulb a filter is not required and make sure the line goes to fitting on primer bulb marked tank.

When i press the primer bulb in it want pop back out why?

The thing to understand is that this is not a primer, it is a purge and there is a big difference, a primer pushes fuel into the carb, a purge pulls fuel from the carb and dumps back to the tank, so when the bulb is pressed in, fuel in the bulb is pushed back to the tank, when the bulb comes our fuel is sucked from the carb, if the bulb stays in either the filter in the tank is blocked, or the fuel hose is trapped, or the filter in the carb is blocked, or somebody has fitted the pipes on the carb round the wrong way.

Why my weedeater idle to high and why air bubble in the primer bulb?

Its not un common to have air in the primer bulb, Check for a possible air leak in the system. This will make the saw idle higher than normal if its sucking air from elsewhere.

Poulan 21cc weedeater - starts but won't stay running. I've cleaned all fuel lines, cleaned plug and has plenty of gas - but still won't start. runs for 2 or 3 seconds and dies. appears to not be getting...

On these types of motors that could be the problem, another thing to check is the primer bulb. I have had a primer bulb that had a small crack in it which went undetected for a while. These types of motors do not have a fuel pump and they work on a siphon type mechanism, if there is an air leak dealing with the gas tank anywhere, that is your problem.

Ryobi ss30 weedeater not starting after repair,to the primer bulb

Follow the instructions exactly. If it won't start, take out the spark plug to see if it is wet, or dry. If it is too wet, the motor may be flooded. If it is completely dry, you have to figure out why it's not getting gas. I am assuming you are pressing the bulb the recommended number of times, and that there is gasoline in the bulb, providing some resistance to your pushes with your thumb.
