Steve...saved my life mate. Used a surgical glove instead of a plastic bag but it worked a treat. Best from London !

4 years later....Your still a Legend! Great Work and Vid!

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!

Bro just explained my life to me 😅 here I sit on a Sunday watching this fella

I did that using an old bicycle inner tube, it actually held up for several days of use. Great video , thanks for sharing 👍

Instead of a plastic bag, I cut the end of a finger off a rubber glove and used that. Worked great all summer. 😎👍👍

The finger tip of a rubber washing up glove also works.

Worked great! Thanks for saving me a trip to the lawnmower store 😀

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.

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

Superb fixed mine working grt ,till new one comes 👌

*drops screw* "Of course..." 🤣🤣🤣 Felt that hard. Great video and my trimmer is running now. Thank you

Thank you, you are a true mechanic!

im over here thinking of how i can fix it lol... Awsome!

Great little tip, thank you.

Thanks ! I never thought of this.

Love you mate. I have the same problem on Sunday morning…

Hello from Australia🇦🇺. Great little trick. Thanks for sharing. Cheers

Yessir Paul!!!! Thanks for the quick fix!🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾

Beautiful video and commentary to listen, thanks very much.

Wow I can’t wait for my blower bulb to break now

Thank you. Chain saw bulb busted yesterday.

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

Slick trick i like it.Thank you for sharing your wisdom with all who seek and God bless you

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. 🙂😇🥰😄

That was great, a real true hack. Thanks

Outstanding idea Sir.

Outstanding work; thank you!

TK U again great job

thanks, hardware store ran out and i didn't want to wait for an online shipping.

Thanks a lot awesome i am on lockdown and i am having problems with mine . Thanks again need some work to be done.

It worked. It helped me this day. Thank you.

Well I'll be damned! What a savior! Brilliant hack! Thanks for sharing! 👍 😊

You the man 👌

Great video Steve 😎 thanks for the tip👍🏻

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

Thanks, very good information !!!!

Very smart idea

Great video

Great thanks I got my weed eater started right up

You solved my problem.

Thanks. A life saver!!

Ah yes I can start my weedeater now them evil bubbles.

Thank u

ALOHA love da tip mahalos

My Husqvarna starter switch on the right!

I heard from a professional that ethanol gas causes that to happen to the bulb over time

Genius.

Inside the Buble there's a a another rubber grommet inside the prime bulb

I noticed you have a leak there at your gasket seen some small bubbles coming from it at the start of your video.

Your awesome brother.

Yes, it is Sunday!

Thank you I’m going to try this. Hurricane Ian just left and my bulb is torn

Thanks one more to put in the books

hope your making some good cash because you deserve it!

Thank you so much my friend you saved

This got me out a jam awesome

thank you sir

Nice idea, thank you

Ingenious!

Thanks for video. Sunday is the Day to go to Church!

Bloody Legend!

Thank you!

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.

Genius!

Heck ya cool

Wow so great 👍

Yee haw brother this helped

saved me thank you Sir

And I thought I knew everything

Shit Lowes open but I'm broke lol thank you soon much my guy

Mine runes with. I’ll cracked but cuts out

I have the same problem. How much would it cost to replace it?

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 .

Our chainsaw mechanic always told us that the saw will run with the bulb broken.

that was so awesome 😎

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.

thanks

Great

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

Just replace it😰

Screw The neighbors wait till Monday

Water balloon

Grt@

I’m going to do this but instead of using a bag, I’m going to use a ballon.

Well made! 😊👍👍 Well now I didn't had to use my brain, instead I will use your Knowledge. 😊😉 Thank you and have a nice Sunday. greetz from bavaria 🥨🍻

LOL neighbors giving you a hard time about your lawn!!! They don't like it they can BLEEP OFF!!!
