    Default Gas line replacement

    I have 2 older model 280r Ryobi gas blowers. My gas lines have deteriorated very badly. I'm confused as to where the new lines go as the old ones were all broken and out of place. I know the pressure line in the side of the tank goes up to the rubber pump but I don't know which ones go to the 2 nipples on the carb...(one in back and one in front)

    I am confused as in the question above. The primer bulb has two fuel line connections, one longer than the other. Which of the two connects to the carb? Additionally, I assume the connector from the fuel tank goes to the other. This leaves a hole in the upper part of the fuel tank. I can't figure out what line goes there and how it is connected to the tank. This blower has been out of service for several months and all the lines had been removed. Hope this isn't so confusing that you are unable to determine my problem. Otherwise, all I need is directions as to connect the fuel lines as they should be. Lynn
