Primed my blower. Sprayed gas in my eye.

Sounds like you need to file a workers comp claim.

I've had every fluid that's used in a automobile in my eyes as well as all the chemicals used in the industry. Brake fluid is not a pleasant feeling nor is carb cleaner or brake clean.

I gave my dad my srm 210 trimmer, its atleast 7 years old. Same primer bulb. Besides being discoloured some, it like new.

I never need to prime my handhelds, but this backpack blower has some carb issues, and has to be primed before each use. Otherwise it'll keep dying out. Not sure exactly what its deal is, but I need to have it serviced.

Yeah, that's more than likely a big factor with this part failure. This bulb has been on here close to 10 years though, so it was bound to go bad sooner or later.

Every time I get glasses they look at the lens and shake their heads. I cant imagine the things I would have in my eye if it wasn't for wearing glasses.

That's why I always wear sun glasses!

I wear glasses everyday, and still get tagged in the eye(s) by various sorts. It's always somethin, but that was the first time to get sprayed while simply priming equipment.
