I've got a weed wacker that's in need of some TLC. There are two hoses going to the fuel tank. On the inside of the tank, I found (separated from the hoses), a sucker looking thing that would appear

The weighted end hose is the pickup. But its a diaphram ("pumper") carb. Crankcase pulses move a diaphram which pumps fuel into the carb. I don't think you should be able to blow through it. The spli

The pump is in the pickup? Or in the carb? I can't blow through the hose connected to the weighted pickup... Its all pretty crusty though, so I'll be replacing it anyway! Mark ______________________

The pump is in the carb. I'm pretty sure that on a properly working one you shouldn't be able to blow through the pumper and into the carb. There's a couple tiny reed valves in the pump that should b

Ok. but I'm blowing the other way, through what I assume is the fuel pickup. No carb involved. That should allow air to pass, right? Mark _______________________________________________ Shop-talk ma

The pump is part of the carb. I don't think that you can blow through a properly working pump. Eric _______________________________________________ Shop-talk mailing list http://autox.team.net/mailma

That's connected by a fuel line to the carb (and/or pump that's part of the carb). Right? Now cut the fuel line in the middle. Take the part of the line that's still attached to the weighted pickup

My son has convinced me that the way to keep any two cycle engine running well is to empty the tank when you are done and run the gas out of the carb. He says even using "Stabile" doesn't work....jus
