Open up the fuel filler cap and hook out the fuel line with a piece of wire that you have bent a small hook into the end. The fuel filter will be on the end. The primer bulbs tend to be pretty generic so shouldn't be difficult or expensive to replace. It sounds like you would do yourself a favour if you did a basic use maintainence and use of chainsaws course.

Ok. I guess there is a problem here somewhere.

 

I'm lost by the posts. So I will stick to John.

 

So it will rev high then die out. This sound like too much air to fuel or too little fuel to air. S I'm guessing by asking where the fuel filter is you think there is a fuel supply issue? Could be blocked tank vent or fuel filter. Both could just need a clean. With tank empty suck through the fuel line with cap on. The tank vent should allow air into tank but not out. So a blow into line is also good. A tester is perfect for this.

 

Other than that a dirty carb will cause the issue.
