    Great fix. On a chainsaw It's always easier to pull the carb when doing fuel lines, even if it runs great and already has a new carb 🙂

    If they run the saw regularly, that one is perfectly fine. But if they don't run the saw very often, then that one will harden up before a new one would, I would think. (assuming the new aftermarket ones are as good as oe ones). But if they don't run it often and/or store it incorrectly, then it doesn't really matter because you will be replacing either one of them eventually.

    I have run into the grommet issue on a Husqvarna 130BT blower. The grommet and fuel lines are sold as one piece, and that piece is on back order until September, as of right now. I have tried an after market one, and it was not the correct diameter. The return line is petrified and has popped out of the grommet. Do you think it would seal ok if I just buy some loose hose and run it temporarily?
