Its a Ryobi 875r 4-stroke weedeater. Only a year ago, the primer bulb
cracked and I could not get JUST the bulb..I had to buy the whole
carburetor for $30.00! This summer, it has already cracked AGAIN. Its
made from surgical rubber, and it just does not last!!! I am so
disgusted with it. Surely some supplier stocks just the primer bulb?
If not, I am throwing this **(*&^&*&%&**!!!!! straight in the trash
rather than get ripped off for yet another carburetor. Thanks!

Does the manual list a part number for just the bulb? That would make it
easier to find.

Where are you getting your part. I'd go to a GOOD saw shop (Stihl,
Husky dealer, etc.) and see if they have any suggestions for you. I
know Leroy at my local shop always has $1.95 to $5 solutions to
problems that could easily hit $$$ if I went the manufactuer route.

:
On the 700 series, here's the PN for the primer bulb, Walbro PN 188-512-1.
I got it at my local lawn mower repair shop(Miller Power Saw in Tyler,
TX). It was about $6. Not sure if that is the same part for the 800
series weedeater. Call Walbro Engine Management(that's who makes the
engine), Cass City, MI 48726, I don't have their ph#.
Good luck,
Gary
