4- Remove the top cover
5- Remove the old air filter and replace it with the new air filter

Remove and replace each fuel line one at a time so you don't confuse where each line goes. It helps to cut the end of the line at an angle to make it easier to push into the tank. I also replaced the fuel filter. Snap the primer bulb out of the housing and snap the new one in. Again make sure you get the lines mounted to the correct locations on the primer.

Replace gas tank and all gaskets. Replace air filter and filter cover with mount. Replaced primer bulb. Replace trimmer hub. Trimmer starts and running well now.
This was my first time to tackle a gas trimmer so it was a learning experience. I could not have done it without the help and tips from Replacement Parts!

Connected wire to old gas line and new line, Pulled into place with new filter installed on end of new line. Easy repair.

Took it apart and replaced the items I purchased

1. Remove top engine cover (2 screws near handle) it fits over the brake handle & carry handle. (This is a good time to clean or replace the air filter- as long as you remember to put it back).
2. Remove starter cord assembly - the cord & reel stays with the housing (3 or 4 screws). You also have to remove the bolt & nut holding the left side of the brake handle and pull that side away from the housing to remove the housing. Pull housing off saw. Fuel line should now be accessible.
3. With needle nose, remove fuel line from tank and carburetor connection.
4. Soap new fuel line (I used dish soap) & insert funny cut end of line into tank.
5. Reach inside of tank with needle nose and GENTLY pull fuel line into tank. It is an interference fit so you have to stretch the fuel line to pull it through the tank. Pull SLOWLY and the line will slide thru the hole in tank.
6. Leave about an inch on the outside of the tank (top) to connect the carburetor nipple.
7. I replaced the fuel filter at this time because I had not changed it since original purchase (~ 10 years).
8. Reinstall pull cord assembly. I had to turn the saw on the tank side down to get the brake handle nut in position to re-engage the bolt. Pull slightly on starter cord to align the clutch pieces so housing will go on completley.
9. Reinstall top cover.
