Nope. It's a molded line with a built in grommet. Seems to be leaking just inside the tank. Pulling it out to see where the leak is will most likely destroy it the rest of the way. A real POS design. Nice, cool, older saw but not a good design on this part of it.

You probly broke it installing,,,they aint easy and happens a lot
Pull it out and see what you got for tygon that will fit inside it.
may have to use a smaller filter.
or heat the end enuf to fit over standard filter.I save every plastic fuel line adapter I find for cases like that.
somehow adapt to what you have.

I probably did. Kind of what I was thinking. Maybe i can fabricate a grommet from the fuel line and I have tygon that should fit and should fit the filter I got for it. Guess I'll give it a whirl and squirt the carb low side jet while I'm at it. Guess I'll go tinker again.
 
A member out there post a question about a J'Red and Shazam !!!

Yeah that's because they have spent most of their life in a non-starting condition....or already blown up...LOL!! A friend of mine has one and he cut a 2-3" slot in the recoil cover with the rope...many many pulls...seen more of those on the dump than anywhere else... Sorry but the 5XX saws were the absolute low point in the Jonsered story....except the 590 which wasn't really a Jonsered at all....those were pretty darn good!!!

On vacation , in another continent , eating foreign foods , making sure distillery products are safe for North American consumption he can stihl reach across the pond and cuff someone behind the ear for daring to thing about purchasing a 5XX saw LOL

True Dedication .
