This carburetor is built to mix gas and oil before the mixture moves into the engine. It is a single-cylinder carburetor that has an auto-choke system and requires regular maintenance. Replacing the air filter, changing oil, and adding fuel stabilizer can increase the life of the engine when using this carburetor. Carburetor issues can be caused by blockages of dirt, fuel, and debris. If an engine won’t start and the fuel tank is full, testing the carburetor can be done by taking out the air filter and pouring a tablespoon of fuel into the carburetor. Pull the starter rope and see if the engine starts but then dies soon after. If this is the case, the carburetor is likely the issue and will need to be replaced. It’s recommended to replace the gaskets at the same time to ensure an airtight seal. This is an authentic OEM replacement part for lawn and garden tool engines. It’s compatible with lawnmowers from Toro and Briggs & Stratton. It comes as an individual item with the carburetor, a gasket, and a rubber O-ring. A screwdriver will also be needed to make a replacement.
The carburetor float is housed in the carburetor and is used to help control the fuel flow. It adjusts the needle valve and ensures that the appropriate amount of fuel reaches the carburetor bowl. This helps provide the right mixture of air and gasoline for the engine to operate at optimal performance. Over time, the float can become worn or detached, or the pin could come loose. When this happens, the flow is affected, and the engine will not operate correctly. If the float isn't working correctly on a lawnmower or another small engine, it might be time for a replacement. This replacement part is a genuine OEM product designed to be used with many Briggs & Stratton engines, including lawnmowers, pressure washers, generators, and other lawn and outdoor equipment engines. It is sold as a single unit with the metal cotter pin included. There are more than 150 compatible machines that this unit will work with. If your lawnmower isn’t working as it should or if the float has come loose and can't control the flow appropriately, this OEM replacement can get things back in working order.
The carburetor has a float valve to control the flow of fuel from the tank to the reservoir. A float valve has three main components - a float, seat, and a needle. When there is adequate fuel level in the carburetor, the float will rise, prompting the needle to close against its seat and prevent overflowing. If the float valve is malfunctioning, it may overflow the carburetor. In some cases, it doesn't provide ample fuel into the carburetor. If you suspect that the needle and seat are faulty, don't waste another moment. Over time, a defective needle and seat can lead to more expensive repairs like a leaking carburetor and even an engine misfiring. For a genuine OEM replacement, get this Midwest Engine 398188 Needle & Seat Kit. Please take note that the Midwest Engine 398188 Needle & Seat Kit only comes with the needle and seat. If you also need a genuine Midwest Engine float replacement, you will need to purchase it separately.
A carburetor on a lawn or garden appliance often has a float-feed chamber or bowl mounted on one side. This is a miniature fuel tank that takes a trickle feed from the main fuel supply. A carburetor is unable to use fuel that is under pressure, so the float chamber keeps everything at atmospheric pressure. When any sort of dirt or debris enters the fuel and air passages, it can cause an array of issues. The debris may enter due to shrinkage of O-rings and gaskets, and that is why a replacement gasket is essential. A carburetor screwdriver is essential when making this repair. Replacing it involves removing several pieces of the carburetor assembly, including a float assembly, inlet needle valve, and the old fuel bowl gasket itself. This authentic replacement carburetor bowl gasket will fit a small engine carburetor bowl on wood chippers, leaf blowers, pressure washers, tillers, snowblowers, lawnmowers, and small engines. It is compatible with Briggs & Stratton, Toro, Simplicity, Lawn-Boy, Cub Cadet, and Snapper, among others.
This air cleaner gasket keeps air from leaking out. It seals the carburetor's top and air cleaner base together, preventing debris that may enter underneath the cleaner and completely bypass the filter. The carburetor needs clean air to make the combustible mixture for the engine. When tiny particles enter, carburetor and engine performance issues arise like rough starting and flooding. An air cleaner gasket replacement is easy. Disconnect the spark plug wire first. Then, remove the air cleaner door and remove the carburetor cover using a nut driver or a screwdriver. Unscrew the fasteners holding the air cleaner housing and then pull the housing towards you. Use a flat screwdriver to dislodge the gasket at the back. Align the new replacement into the housing and reassemble the components. This air cleaner is a genuine component of Midwest Engine. This brand-new OEM air cleaner will work with lawnmowers, engines, pressure washers, wood chippers, and generators made by Toro, Lawn-Boy, Craftsman, Simplicity, and Briggs & Stratton. This part is sold individually. Bolts and screws for the air cleaner housing are sold separately.
This is a genuine replacement fuel line with an in-line fuel filter. It is designed to work with a number of different small engines found on yard equipment, such as lawn mowers, tillers, and more. This part serves several critical purposes on the engine, including moving fuel from the tank to the combustion chamber. The in-line filter removes debris and contaminants from the fuel, helping keep the engine running smoothly. Fuel lines and fuel filters both wear out over time. Debris will eventually clog fuel filters, forcing a replacement. Fuel lines can become brittle through time, exposure to gasoline, and exposure to heat and the elements. Replacing this fuel line/fuel filter combo is simple. A pair of needle-nosed pliers is the only tool required. Simply pinch the clamps to open them, pull the fuel line loose from the nipples, and replace it with the new part. Note that this fuel line is designed for a range of Briggs & Stratton small engines found on common yard equipment, including Toro lawn mowers. It is an OEM part and is sold individually.
This is a fuel line replacement intended to keep a lawnmower's engine running smoothly. It is long enough to make a couple of fuel lines, just cut the fuel line to the desired length and keep the rest as a spare. When a mower doesn't start easily or performs poorly when running, the fuel delivery system may have a problem and will need repair. The fuel line that supplies gas from the tank to the carburetor may be cracked or broken. When this occurs, it is best to replace the fuel line before it becomes a flammable hazard. This is an OEM replacement fuel line sourced from the manufacturer and is sold individually. This replacement part is compatible with different Briggs & Stratton mowers. Remember to use work gloves and drain the gas tank before the installation of this part.
A flange screw has a range of applications depending on how and where it is used. It features a flat portion near the top of the screw that helps to spread out the clamping force, which can reduce damage to the machine while remaining tight and in place.

The choke return spring is a part that is used on many small engines in lawn and garden equipment. The part is a component in the choke system that ensures that the correct tension is applied to keep the choke lever in the appropriate position. If the choke return spring is broken or begins to malfunction, the lawnmower may have issues keeping power and running correctly.If the choke return spring is damaged or weak, it will prevent the choke from returning to the correct position. This can cause the engine to speed up and accelerate more quickly than desired. The air filter housing will need to be unscrewed to access the choke return spring. Take the wire off the spark plug and remove the boot from the plug. Remove the spring from the linkage and then clip on the new one. Replace the other components to get the equipment to work again.This choke return spring is an authentic OEM replacement part directly sourced from the manufacturer. It is sold individually.

An in-line fuel filter prevents contaminants from entering the carburetor and engine. In any engine, if the in-line fuel filter becomes clogged for whatever reason, the fuel cannot flow freely to the carburetor. This can prevent the engine from starting or may shut off the engine during operation when the fuel supply is interrupted. Without any gas, the engine cannot run. Any number of things can cause the filter to become clogged. Examples of typical clogging culprits are lawn clippings, mulch, stones or rocks, or contaminants from poor-grade fuel. If your engine stops or won’t start up, remove the old in-line fuel filter, and replace it with the new one. If this does not fix your problem, the carburetor may need cleaning or replacement due to damage from the contaminants, as well. The outside material of this fuel filter is plastic, while the inside material is comprised of a filter component interior. This in-line fuel filter is manufactured by Briggs & Stratton. It is compatible with engines on lawnmowers, lawn tractors, snowblowers, and generators manufactured by Briggs & Stratton, Craftsman, Cub Cadet, Murray, MTD, Simplicity, Snapper, Toro, and Troy-Bilt. It is for engines that are supplied fuel by way of a fuel pump. This is a genuine OEM part and is sold separately as a replacement.
A hose clamp serves the basic purpose of holding together two connecting hoses. This is a crucial job in an engine. Since there are so many connecting tubes and hoses transferring oil and fuel within an engine, a leak could prove catastrophic.

The fuel cut-off valve is used as an external mechanism to stop the flow of gasoline from the fuel assembly to the engine to conserve fuel and maintain safe operation. If your device did not come with a cut-off valve, this is an easy install to give more control over the engine’s operation. When installing a fuel cut-off valve in your small gasoline engine, the first thing to note is the little arrow on the side of the valve. This indicates the direction that fuel will be flowing from the tank to the motor. Empty the fuel tank before proceeding with the repair. Remove the fuel line from the tank and cut the hose in two. Install properly sized hose clamps on either side of the cut and force the two ends of the valve into the severed line. Reattach the fuel lines and fill the tank.
