This carburetor insulator is a genuine MTD replacement part for appliances with small engines, such as lawn mowers, lawn tractors, lawn trimmers, snowblowers, chipper shredders, tillers, and leaf blowers. The function of a carburetor insulator in a small engine appliance is to maintain a lower temperature for a running engine and to keep that heat away from the carburetor, the purpose of which is to mix the air and fuel in order to start the engine. A functioning carburetor insulator will prevent the engine from overheating.A broken or non-functioning carburetor insulator will likely not prevent the engine from operating, but it might slow down its power or reduce its fuel economy due to compensation from overheating. An engine with a damaged carburetor insulator might take in more fuel than usual or allow in unmetered air. An unmetered air leak can cause damage to the engine in the short-term so if there appears to be visible damage to the carburetor insulator, it should be replaced as soon as possible.This carburetor insulator is compatible with the following brands: MTD, Cub Cadet, Yard Machines, and Craftsman.

This choke control lever automatically regulates the combined amount of air and fuel that come together in a small gasoline powered engine's carburetor to give a cold engine a fuel-rich mixture when the motor is first started. The control lever has several positions that allow it to adjust the fuel/air mixture in lawn equipment such as lawn mowers, snow blowers, tillers, chippers, log splitters, and other small gas engines. Over time with regular use, the control lever may become worn and must be replaced. There are several signs that indicate a choke control lever may be failing. If the gas tank is full of fresh gasoline but the engine refuses to start, if the engine starts and quickly floods, or if the engine runs at top speed but does not idle, the choke control level may be need to be replaced. Should the choke control lever need to be replaced, it is essential to use an OEM genuine manufactured replacement part such as this one.
