Mannn. Its sunday and cut my yard weedeat my yard and the button had a whole when it came time for blowing. Found this video and bammm 5 min later. My blower is going. Thank for the video.
Wow it worked on my echo srm 266T my dad actually bought a new weed wacker or trimmer and he gave me the old one said it needed a new carburetor but the primer bulb was just broken lol
Stop leaving the weed eater in the sun. The bubble dries and cracks after just a couple of hours in the sun. Lubricate the bubble, lightly on the outer part of the bubble.
Yeah, i get it!. Clever initiative. I would highly recommend that you all trying this method Cut out a piece of the Plastic you are attempting to use as a "gasket" and pour some Gasoline on it and rub it in with your fingers so that you can Feel if the plastic is "tolerant" to gasoline or if it is somewhat melting(smearing on your fingers) as this would sure mean that you will end up with dissolved plastic inside your carburetor and that is not a good thing. You know what i mean. I just want you ALL to have a Blast all the time every day, ALL day, And not have to clean out the carburetor from plastic as it would sure be annoying. 🙂😇🥰😄
Thank you so much, i just need to get this done on the quick and will get the new part later, 4 years after your post and still saving the day, new subscriber FOR SURE!!!!
Dude, what is up with all of us having the same problem on sunday? Man, i was so motivated yesterday, i had everything done just about, i went to start my blower, freaking bulb cracked!!! I was so disappointed! Thank you!
I was going to use a disposable surgical glove , cut the end off a finger . I think they're resistant to most stuff . . . . Then found out it's one of those clip in bulbs , a pain in the r's . Why did they bring those bulbs in anyway , just to sell spares I guess . Priming it the old way was fine by me and you didn't have the trouble with these failing . Any time they've saved you is then lost anyway .
I was running my blower without a primer bulb for a year. I just stuck a plastic bottle cap over it to seal it. I eventually put a new primer bulb on it and it just gave me more problems starting it up and it won't stay running. Choke does indeed work much better! I just have to clean the carb out now, and never use a dumb primer bulb ever again!
I'm restoring a weed eater motor to put on a giant rc plane, when the primer bulb broke i didn't know what to do because my parents weren't going to the store any time soon but thanks, ill see if it works! also id problably take two pieces of plastic (Stack two) so it would be stronger
I did that using an old bicycle inner tube, it actually held up for several days of use.
Great video , thanks for sharing 👍

Your welcome Jason
Great
Our chainsaw mechanic always told us that the saw will run with the bulb broken.
I noticed you have a leak there at your gasket seen some small bubbles coming from it at the start of your video.
Grt@
I have the same problem.
How much would it cost to replace it?
Couple dollars. Just guessing.
I’m going to do this but instead of using a bag, I’m going to use a ballon.
Good idea. I didn't have one. Let me know how it turns out
Water balloon

That is good advice. Thanks i didnt think about it at the time
Instead of a plastic bag, I cut the end of a finger off a rubber glove and used that. Worked great all summer.
😎👍👍

Steve...saved my life mate. Used a surgical glove instead of a plastic bag but it worked a treat. Best from London !
Yessir Paul!!!!
Thanks for the quick fix!🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
Outstanding idea Sir.

Well I'll be damned! What a savior! Brilliant hack! Thanks for sharing! 👍 😊
Great video
4 years later....Your still a Legend! Great Work and Vid!
I love ghetto solutions because I'm cheap as hell when it comes to fixing stuff. Good thing I don't mind a little repair time every once in a while
I heard from a professional that ethanol gas causes that to happen to the bulb over time
Great thanks I got my weed eater started right up
Great video Steve 😎 thanks for the tip👍🏻
LOL neighbors giving you a hard time about your lawn!!! They don't like it they can BLEEP OFF!!!
*drops screw*
"Of course..."
🤣🤣🤣
Felt that hard. Great video and my trimmer is running now. Thank you

My Husqvarna starter switch on the right!
Love you mate. I have the same problem on Sunday morning…
Thanks for video. Sunday is the Day to go to Church!
Bloody Legend!
You are as well my friend
unfortunately, only the ring at the bottom of my bulb still exists 😞
found out you dont really need to the primer bulb. ran my weed eater by just using the choke to start it and it worked
I was running my blower without a primer bulb for a year. I just stuck a plastic bottle cap over it to seal it. I eventually put a new primer bulb on it and it just gave me more problems starting it up and it won't stay running. Choke does indeed work much better!

Screw The neighbors wait till Monday
Thanks ! I never thought of this.
Bro just explained my life to me 😅 here I sit on a Sunday watching this fella
Me too hahaha
Thank you I’m going to try this. Hurricane Ian just left and my bulb is torn
Outstanding work; thank you!
I tried this ' I ended up using the tip of a condom since it was already the shape of a primer bulb and it worked perfect.
hope your making some good cash because you deserve it!
Your comment is all the payment I need. Thanks so much.

Great news. Now get to work lmao.
Thank you, you are a true mechanic!
You are too kind. Thank you
Great little tip, thank you.
Shit Lowes open but I'm broke lol thank you soon much my guy
Inside the Buble there's a a another rubber grommet inside the prime bulb
Yea thought that valve had to be there to run
Very smart idea
Yes, it is Sunday!
Worked great! Thanks for saving me a trip to the lawnmower store 😀
Ingenious!
Genius!
thank you sir
The finger tip of a rubber washing up glove also works.
The plastic bag lasted for 2 weeks.
