Default Weedeater fuel line is disintegrated

Your local Stihl dealer should have some Tygon hose in stock.

It takes patience and some minor disassembly. It also takes the exact
size tubing, since there's almost no 'elbow room'. As I recall, there are
two diameters of tubing used.

I found this tubing at our area small engine shop, which has since gone
out of business. No idea where you'd find replacement line now. (It
might be easy to find -- I haven't had to try yet).

My weedeater was bogging down so I figured it was time to check the
fuel filter.

When I tried to fish it out, the filter fell off.

Turns out the fuel line is falling apart....just touching it causes it
to crumble.

Is this difficult to replace?
