TBH Marko, the pick up hose does not tear easily, unless it has degraded, so I reckon yours had degraded and its a fair bet there was already a split partway down which allowed it to suck air when the fuel level dropped.

 

I'll bet the new pipe will sort it out nicely and cheaply. Good luck.

 

I agree with Barrie, never seen a split pipe on these machines, usually pretty tough!

Fitted the fuel pipe, breather and filter the other day and had two days heavy use with the saw this week. Works as good as new! Was only £12 for the parts so a nice cheap fix :-)
