[QUOTE="mrfixitpaul, post: 38675, member: 2582"] In the tank is a pick up tube and uaually a screen with a check valve (newer machines no longer have the check valve but I'm not sure how long ago they stopped) , if you blow back through and it has a check valve it may cause more problems. Probably if the machine is 4 years old or more, the pick up tube has broken off. You'll need to raise the cab, follow the fuel line back from the primer bulb, under the engine to the top of the fuel tank. Pry the metal elbow out of the rubber grommett, and see what is there. should be about 1 foot of clear fuel line for the pickup tube. If it has broken, don't worry about the piece left in the tank, just install a new piece and reassemble. If all looks well with the pickup tube, check for pinched line or maybe debris in the metal elbow or stuck in the line just before the primer bulb. [/QUOTE]
