    Question:
    How do I determine if I need a replacement grommet for the Husqvarna 570BTS Leaf Blower?
    Details:

    The return fuel line has become detached from the fuel tank grommet. 
    I cannot determine if the line is supposed to feed through the hole, or if a nipple has been broken off that the line would normally be attached to. 

    The yellow line appears to be way too big to fit through the hole.  
    I cannot find any photographs with sufficient detail to determine if a replacement is required.

      The lines are supposed to be larger than the holes. It is a fiction fit. From the photo I can tell you need a new return line as it has shrunken already which is why it cam out. Tygon line does this when exposed to fuel. The tank grommet should fine if it is not loose in the tank hole.

        Thank you Eugene!  I was tangled in some branches which probably pulled it out. 
        I tried to push it back into the hole but it resisted.  I wasn't sure that's where it belonged.  
        Thanks again!!
