Weedeater repair in Baton Rouge?

Broke out the old weedeater. It seems the plastic tube connecting the motor to the round primer pump has rotted.
Instead of buying a new one, where can I take it in BR to be repaired?

What brand is it? If it's echo/Stihl etc the carb kits will have new fuel lines.

This... or buy someone elses used that is working. To fix up my echo was about $70. A new one wouldve been 120.

Amazon sells carb kits. Comes with fuel lines, primer bulb, spark plug, and a new carb for $15. Put one on my echo in 10 minutes and it ran like new.

My neighbor helped me fix this exact issue on mine. Took 10 minutes and $6.
Wish I could remember to help you

dude, its just a small rubber tube.
go to home depot and buy a universal fuel line set for trimmers and go home, remove old hose, cut a replacement for it the same size and push it onto the nipple
if thats way too complicated for you then you can buy a new fuel tank for $15 that has the complete assembly including a new pump bulb
or bring it to the shop and pay a guy $100 to fix a trimmer when you can go buy a brand new one for $150
