I have a Tanaka TBC 250 here Vietvet and that has to have a remote primer also, if they had a primer on the underside of the carby
you couldn't get your hand to reach it because the fuel tank is under the carby and the air cleaner cover restricts access under the carby..

It's usually easier to replace the primer when it's a remote one because you don't need to remove the carby to get to the primer bulb
screws.

Another way to test the primer is to connect a couple hoses and put one in a small cup of fuel and push the primer you will soon see which one
is suction.
