Craftsman Trimmer 35879107 2008: Is this a Poulan Engine?

Was this engine actually made by Poulon? I've seen some kits on Amazon for fuel line, fuel pump bulb and filters that say Craftsman/Poulon.

I am trying to rebuild the throttle handle area. Most of the parts are missing and I believe I have obtained them all using a parts guide. Can you please walk me through with photos? I’m stuck on the trigger assembly.

Thank you

Craftsman Trimmer 31679188 2012: Fuel lines and filter replacement

Tue, 20 May 2025 10:34:44 -0700

Hi Ifixit community, I have a partially disassembled (no fuel lines or fuel filter) Craftsman 316.791880 string trimmer. I am looking to install new lines and a new filter but not sure of the routing of the lines and why there are 2 holes in the bottom of the fuel tank. Is anyone familiar with this model and the fuel system?

Thank you in advance, any help is much appreciated!
