How do I replace fuel line on Stihl MS290!?

Drain the fuel tank. Underneath the handle end of the chain saw there is a small torx headed screw that allows the handle to be lifted off. Unscrew the air filter. Youll need then to unspring the trigger link bar that attaches to the small pivoting lug at the back of the carb. Then remove the two small nuts that fasten the carb. Be careful not to drop these into the intake duct. Slide the carb off, the fuel line will usually come off as you do this. Open the fuel cap and fish out the filter end of the fuel line. Prise it off and then pull the line out from the top of the fuel tank where it enters underneath the carb.
