This is a genuine Homelite replacement part designed for use with Trimmers and Blowers. It is made out of Rubber and it is Sold Individually.

Once the carburetor is full of fuel, the excess fuel will be purged back into the tank in the fuel return line. At some time the primer will lose its elasticity or crack and need to be replaced.

No start-had not run for 15 years-had been left with gas and oil in the machine-never properly stored
Replaced primer bulb and cleaned carb with aerosol spray, replaced fuel tank (old one was cracked), Put in fresh gas/oil mix but still would not start. I bought a new spark plug and then it ran. Adjusted carb and it now works great. Including the carb kit I have $32 invested and it runs like a new machine again and starts easily.
Remove two screws holding metal plate, remove & replace old one, secure plate with screws. Additional time spent cleaning grime off engine, and fuel tank had crack that I repaired with J & B Epoxy Weld.
I started by removing the air filter cover and box. That gave access to carb, so I took off the carb, and removed the broken bulb. I then put on the new bulb and reassembled in reverse order.
