My weedeater's gas line finally bit the dust (literally) and I'm now in the
process of trying to replace it. I have very TINY hole in the gas tank that I
fit a small rubber hose through. The hose is the right side but I just need
some tips on how to get the tube through that hole in the gas tank. Help?
i got an old sears weed eater.. this is how i done it: two plastic hoses
that go into the gas than ,
1 the fat one about 3/8 inch... eventhough the old one is short about 3
inches you start off with a longer one and cut one end into a
point(thats so you can feed it into the plastic tank.. i have to put a
small filter on one end and then thread the other pointed end into the
gas tank opening and into the small hole inside the tank and when you
get the pointed end into (or out of this hole in the tank) you then take
needle nose pliers and pull it through... after it is all the way though
i have a lock ring that goes over the end of the hose(to keep it from
fallng back into the tank)
now for the smaller hose.. same thing you got to start off with a longer
piece of hose and cut the end into a point(so it will fit into the small
opening... when you get some through you take needle nose pliers and
pull it through... pretty easy once you do it.. i am on my third set of
hoses.. the gas and the heat over time in the storage shed makes the
hoses brittle........
hope this helps.
