How the primer bulb on a weed eater works?

It sucks gas from the gas tank to the carborator using nothing but suction In general the primer bulb draws fuel from the tank through the carb and then returns it to the tank. Look for "carb" and "tank" on the primer bulb and make the respective connection. A line should come from the tank to the carb. Another from the carb to the primer. and another back to the tank.

Remove the filter cover. unhook the two fuel lines behind the primer bulb. Remove the two screws (inset star) that hold the carburetor, then gently rotate the filter base to expose the back of the primer bulb push the two retaining tabs and remove the primer taking notice which fuel lines go into it, one is longer than the other. Replace in reverse order and replace gaskets if damaged. Paul
