Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): homelite blower, needle nose pliers, gas tank

Question
I have a small homlite blower. The fuel line running from the gas tank to the priming bulb broke. I got a new fuel line and new fuel filter. The fuel filter is located in the gas tank. How in the world do I get the fuel line back in the tank with the fuel filter attached. The holes are very small (for a good seal) and Iam unable to get inside the gas tank to attach the fuel filter once the fuel line is in place. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks
Brad

Hello Brad:

It's Kinda like Putting a Ship in a Bottle. LOL. Just Kidding. The Fuel Line is Pushed and Pulled (I Use Long Needle Nose Pliers) Through the Small Hole Until the Hose is Out the Fill Hole about a 1/2". Then Attach the Filter and Pull the Hose Back into the Tank Until the Filter Lays at the Bottom of the Tank Near the Fill Hole. **Hint: Use Plenty of Spray Lubrication at the Small Hole as you are Feeding in the Hose. It Slides Easier.** If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Thanks.

Good Luck
