Filter to the fuel pump side of carb... this pic covers the rest

What about the long and short on the primer?

Suction side pulls gas from the carb, other blows it back into the tank

Followed the above diagram and now when i press the bulb gas comes oozing out around the bottom of the carb. Then the bulb goes rock hard and wont compress.

Im confused???

Short is in, long is out. It helps to remember how the fuel flows through it.

Lines are backwards on the primer bulb.

Put your finger on the outlets of the primer. Push the bulb in. One will let pressure out other will suck air in. Pressure out goes to tank. Other goes to the carb

I remember purge bulb by Long tube always goes to tank.

Update sorry lads been busy with trade school and all.

Finally got the fuels lines hooked up the right way. But i think the primers squirting way to much fuel into the carb. now the thing is hard to start and runs like trash. Time for a carb kit????? Crank seals???

The primer is actually a purge bulb. It removes air from the carb and replaces with fuel, so it's not flooding saw. Carb could be stiff metering diaphragm or poor closure of needle into seat or bad check valve. I don't bother with a RB kit for these carbs. New AM carbs cost $8-$12 on ebay.

Bulb shouldn't be squirting fuel into the carb. It should be pulling fuel through the carb

Ok ill just order a new am carb. Thanks to all!
