In an earlier post you said your edger didn't have a primer so I'm not
sure why you are looking for one. The picture shows one but then does
not list a part number, probably because your model doesn't use one.
It's just a generic picture that is used in lots of parts lists.

I'm sorry that I confused things. No I do not have a primer bulb as
so many other of my lawn equipments do. I wish it did. As it is, I
have no way to prime it. All I can do is set the choke closed
half-open or open and hold a throttle lever down. I can't do much to
make it run. I think a carburetor overhaul might help things.
I'm going to play with the air screw some tomorrow.


Parts for the carb itself should be available locally from any decent
power equipment shop. Just tell them you need parts for a Walbro carb
and give them the number off the carb body. Should either be WT-242 or
WT-308 (according to the Poulan parts list.) Don't mention that it is
for a Poulan and they should be glad to help you.

Or if you will tell me exactly what parts you need, I'll see what I can
do as far as getting you the correct part numbers.

Maybe I will take you up on that.

Thanks again.
