Parts for Mtd 170-LU: Lu Crankcase Parts

This is a piston ring set that is compatible with a range of lawn and garden equipment. Piston rings create a seal between the cylinder wall and the piston, so the pressurized combustion gases do not leak. If the piston rings are going bad or have failed, owners may notice that the machine is using more oil. They may also see white or gray smoke coming from the machine's exhaust. The performance of the equipment will also decline.Piston rings can fail for many different reasons. They might not have enough lubrication, which could cause them to overheat and lose their tension. The piston rings could also fail if they are installed incorrectly. Machines with problematic piston rings will have trouble operating properly and will need to be replaced.This piston ring set can work with select chippers, lawn tractors, log splitters, snowblowers, mowers, and other engines from Yard-Man, Yard Machines, MTD, Troy-Bilt, Cub Cadet, and Husky.

This genuine MTD complete engine in a log splitter is responsible for powering up the appliance, maintaining its speed and power, and turning off when the appliance is not in use. The engine operates after it is turned on by the ignition of the spark plugs, which themselves are ignited by the combination of air and fuel taken in by the carburetor.The complete engine of a log splitter might have to be replaced if it is no longer working properly and its malfunction cannot be attributed to any specific component inside or around the engine. Signs of an engine that is deteriorated or malfunctioning can include irregular vibrations radiating from the log splitter while operating, black or white smoke pouring out of the exhaust pipe, or unusually rough riding and unstable traction from the log splitter. If any of these issues cannot be resolved by fixing an individual component within or outside of the log splitter engine, the complete engine can be replaced with this OEM part. Remember to always wear gloves when handling, repairing, and operating outdoor equipment. This complete engine is compatible with MTD brand log splitters. This part is sold individually.
