    Question:
    I have an old Husq 145BT Blower - I was cleaning it and pulled the fuel line out of the gas tank. How the heck do you get it back in. Also is there an easy way to change the fuel filter?

    Thanks,

    Not so smart

    Steve,

    Thank you for contacting Husqvarna.

    Those fuel lines can be tough to get back in but they have to fit tight to keep from leaking. A small screwdriver and patience is what it takes. To change the fuel filter a coat hanger bent into a hook works well. You reach in thru the fill neck and fish the filter out. Then hold it with needle nose pliers and remove and replace with new one.

    Hope this helps and thanks again.
