I'm pretty sure the problem with my non-running Poulan Pro PP335 trimmer is the carburetor. When I press the primer bulb, it doesn't fill with gas or build pressure like it should. I can see a small amount of fuel flowing from the smaller line into the left of the carburetor, and then through to the larger line into the primer bulb, but it's not enough to start the trimmer.
I thought maybe the lines were attached wrong, but that doesn't seem to be the problem. I noticed when I remove the fuel cap, it releases pressure. Is it supposed to be vented?
If that's not the problem, it has to be the carburetor. I tried taking it apart and cleaning it (practically spotless inside anyway) but I really can't figure out how the fuel flows and if it's truly clean inside the passages, or if there's any other reason the bulb can't pull fuel through it.
Unfortunately the carburetor specified for this model is no longer available. What are my alternatives? Will this one work? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Carburetor...var=422884333830&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649
