Ryobi 31cc Trimmer Plus won't prime
I have a Ryobi 31cc Trimmer Plus (725r) that won't prime. I have drained all the gas to see if when I pump the primer bulb I get air flow, which I do. I then refilled the gas tank, pumped the primer bulb, you can see the bubbles when pushing in on the bulb, but no gas is being sucked in. I put the cap on and primed it, still won't prime. When I remove the cap you can hear the air in the tank escape. Any help would be appreicated. Thanks.

check your fuel line for a crack, especially near and inside the fuel tank. Sounds like you are drawing air and not fuel. You will probably need to replace the fuel lines. LOL
