Chuck it and buy cordless electric. My Makita will cover our entire yard on one 
4amp battery. We have a small yard but since I have all Makita tools I've got 
several batteries.

A cheap gas weed eater almost isn't worth having. A really good one costs too 
much to be worth it for the average homeowner.

I went out to do some weed eating and discovered the fuel return line 
from the carb to the tank was broken. I had a kit I bought a while back 
to replace the intake line.  Replaced it, but pumping the primer bulb it 
does not pull in any fuel from the tank.  I took the primer off and did 
not see anything obvious but it is not priming. It looks like I can get 
an entire new carb (probably from china) from amazon for $15-20.  This 
is a Poulan I bought at the local farm store that has to be at least 10 
years old or more. Are these things worth messing with or should I just 
buy a new weed eater?

Funny side fact.  I have always called grass trimmers or edgers weed 
eaters, and the activity is weed eating.  I think this may have been the 
first brand of these and it is sort of like Zerox or Kleenex are brands 
but have come to be a generic term.
