Hello! I have acquired a Poulan pro leaf blower (was found on the street for trash pick up). I took it home, and it would start, but couldn't idle OR rev to full RPMs without stalling. I left it for a while until I had more time to clean and tune the carburetor, but when I came back to it the primer bulb had no fuel. I tried pumping, but it wouldn't draw any up. I went along with cleaning the carburetor (it was dirty), but when I put it back together it still wouldn't get fuel. I realized the fuel line corroded, so I replaced it, but still nothing. Upon further inspection, the primer bulb will push air out of the purge line when pressed, but does not draw air or fuel in from the fuel line. I took it apart and put it back together, trying to map the path of the fuel through the carburetor, but with no success. I know where the fuel enters and where the bubble draws in fuel, but I can't trace the whole path because there are many small holes. I tried to find where the bubble was sucking from instead of the fuel line by submerging it, and when I did it would draw water in (not from the fuel line) but I could not tell where. What is going on!? It runs if I put fuel into the air intake, and the carb is clean, put together correctly, and the bubble and lines are not broken. What is it drawing air from? Does anyone know? Thanks!
