Fuel Tank Assembly 308181004

Ordering the part was easy and inexpensive. Just put in the trimmer model # and got a list of parts that fit. Received the fuel tank in a few days. Replacing the old tank was not difficult. The screws to remove the fuel tank plate were star screws so I had to use drill and star bit since I didn't have star screwdriver. Removed the leaky tank, but first made sure where the fuel line and filter were connected. New fuel tank fit right in, didn't need new bumpers, just used the ones it already had. Screwed the plate back on, connected the fuel line and filter and done. Trimmer still runs great, was just tired of leaky mess and considered just buying a new one. Saved quite a bit by just repairing it.

It was easy , unscrews 2 bolts in the back remove the old hoses. Install the new fuel tank, place fuel lines where they were. All done, simple

Pulled off old tank and replaced it with ereplacementParts unit, attached new included fuel lines, and that was it. I filled new with gas/oil mixture and got to work trimming. I saved a full $70 to $80 dollars with this simple repair. The part I needed was here in just a few days, plus, it wasn't available anywhere near where I live. The minimum cost for a repair shop to do this would have been $45 plus the cost of any parts and their delivery.
