Trick to replacing fuel line in 550xp?

[rustyb]

A new fuel line came with my replacement carb "kit". I don't understand whats different about this line but intend to install it. #577 50 41

If it were simply a hose, it would be a no-brainer removal/install. However, for those who have messed with them, you know there's built in grommets.

What is the trick to removing and installing these lines?

I thread a zip tie through the lines and use electrical tape to smooth the old line and new and apply soap to the line and pull it through.

Thanks. To save myself some grief and time, I just used the fuel line that was already in the saw and cut the end off so it would fit with the new carb.
