A primer bulb may not prime due to several reasons, including a clogged fuel line, a dirty or faulty carburetor, or an air leak in the fuel system. If the fuel tank is empty or if there are blockages in the fuel filter, it can also prevent proper priming. Additionally, if the bulb itself is damaged or cracked, it may not create the necessary vacuum to draw fuel effectively. Checking these components can help identify and resolve the issue.

The carb connection on a primer bulb is typically located on the side of the bulb that connects to the carburetor's fuel intake.

The bulb usually has two connections: one for the fuel line from the tank and one that leads to the carburetor. Make sure to refer to your specific engine's manual for precise locations and configurations.

The primer bulb probably needs to be replaced unless either one of the fuel hoses leading in and out of the primer bulb bracket is clogged. Be sure you mark how each fuel line goes before you remove the bulb so you can replace them correctly. Hmmm. Thinking more about it: If the primer worked properly before disassembly, chances are you crossed up the fuel lines when re-installing. Try switching them.
