Very likely your primer which causes a vacuum to pull the fuel from the tank to the carburetor has a "rubber ball" and rubber gasket that has cracked, causing it to leak gas.

Are smaller John Deere tractors made by AYP?

No. Craftsman , AYP , Husky , whatever have cloned the JD low end model. AYP Craftsman is a decent LAWNMOWER if cared for. A great value. The "Made for BOX STORE John Deere" is not the same one your Pappy plowed the fields with. It is made to compete with the Craftsman. Period. It uses the same engines and transaxles as its competitors, BUT IS NOT MADE IN THE SAME FACTORY. Anybody that says otherwise is WRONG. Buy the Craftsman, keep the extra cash. Move along. ToeCutter.

Primer bulb is pumping gas in the wrong direction on your craftsman 25cc weedwacker?

I could assume this problem may lie in the pressure used on the primer bulb. Try steady, slower pressure on the bulb... . New info. Just was working on my neighbors unit. same problem. we thought it was dirt clogging carburator. cleaned every thing and blew air through everything. still no prime fuel to the carb. got looking around and all the fuel lines in the tank had disintegrated from setting in the garage for a few years with fuel in the system.

Are small rifle primers ok for use when loading 45 auto?

No. They are the wrong diameter, 45 you need large pistol/large rifle sized primer diameter. Also rifle primers are thicker and require a heavier primer strike that some pistols can not deliver. My Springfield XDM only intermittently can set off a small rifle primer when used to load 9mm.
