This float bowl gasket is a replacement part for use with lawn and garden equipment, as well as other small engines. The section of the carburetor that is shaped like a bowl where the fuel reserve is maintained is regulated by a float. The float bowl gasket helps to ensure that there are no leaks in this area. The float bowl gasket may start to wear down in time, and it will need to be replaced to prevent fuel leaks. If there are leaks present, it could be due to an issue with this gasket, so it should be checked and replaced if needed. When replacing the gasket, it is important that the surfaces are clean and dry. It is also important that no solvents or gasket sealers are used with this gasket. The genuine OEM float bowl gasket is sold individually and will work to replace the gaskets in lawn tractors, lawn mowers, and other small engines. The compatible brands include Craftsman, Toro, Wheel Horse, Lawn-Boy, Simplicity, and Briggs & Stratton.

The washer seal is an essential part of the carburetor float bowl on engines with carburetors on lawn mowers. This washer prevents gasoline leaks from the carburetor by sealing the bolt to the bowl.The washer seal is normally replaced when overhauling the carburetor. Reusing the old one is not recommended. If the seal between the bolt and the bowl is not tight, gasoline could leak and cause damage to the engine or cause bodily injury due to combustion. There are normally two bolts on the carburetor bowl. Each bolt will have a washer seal. It is a good idea to replace both seals at the same time to ensure both are flush with the bowl.When replacing the washer seal, it has to be flush and tight but not overtightened. If it is overtightened, it can crack and strip, making it leak and useless. If necessary, the washer can be trimmed to make a tighter fit. After making sure the fit is flush, it slides over the bolts that make the connection from the bolt to the bowl. The bolts are then tightened.This OEM Midwest Engine washer seal is sold individually for Briggs and Stratton lawn mower and lawn tractor engines.
