Finally got around to taking the pictures on doing a fuel line replacment on a Poulan Micro XXV. This is basially the same for the Poulan 1800, 2000, 2300 and all the re badged Craftsman, Wizards, Dayton's etc that are based on this model as well.
In fact, the one I needed to do right now is a Craftsman 1.8.
It's lines were getting deteriorated from ethonal exposure. Here is the subject.
The first thing you need to do is to remove the 2 screws holding the carb cover on, the one screw holding the top of the handle on then remove the bar side cover, theres one screw in the back along with the bar nut on the front.
If you look right below the rear of the handle you will see a double barbed connector hooking the 2 fuel lines together.
You can now remove the old fuel lines and make note of how the line was run through the front of the handle near the throttle trigger and into the carb box.
What you will need now is a pair of hemostats, and some thin wire like this stove pipe wire.
You will need approximately 14" of fuel line, about 9" through the handle and about 5" from the bottom of the handle into the tank.
The fuel line needs to be 3/16"OD and I like to use 3/32"ID x 3/16"OD line. You can use 1/8"ID X 3/16" but you have to be carefull not to let it kink in any tight bends.
I start by running the small wire through the line inlet of the fuel tank and out the tank fill hole.
