This authentic OEM replacement carburetor kit is designed to be used in a variety of small gas-powered lawn appliances. This kit includes a carburetor, gasket, and choke assembly. The carburetor is an essential part of an engine that is responsible for mixing fuel and air before passing the mixture on for combustion. This is a delicate balance that can cause the engine to perform poorly if the carburetor is damaged or faulty. Carburetors most commonly wear out overtime because of built-up engine sludge. After extended periods, the carburetor will begin to build a coating of exhaust and combustion products that prevent it from working as effectively.

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.

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.

This is a fuel cut-off value that is used in over 150 different small gasoline-powered engines. Those devices that have this value include power vacuums, leaf blowers, pressure washers, and generators. The fuel cut-off valve is a safety feature that sits on the bottom of the fuel tank. In situations where the engine must be cleared of gasoline, this valve is very useful. It allows the gasoline in the fuel line to continue to the carburetor and to be combusted in the cylinder. Once the engine block is drained of gasoline, no further ignition of fuel is possible until the cut-off is reactivated. Although it is out of the way of casual contact, the cut-off can be bumped and damaged by contact with other tools, hoses, or debris. Also, since it is a narrow passage through which gasoline passes, it is possible for contaminants to jam the flow and create a blockage. If the tank is full of gasoline and the carburetor is functioning normally, an engine that won't offer to start at all may be the victim of a faulty cut-off fuel valve. This OEM genuine replacement is compatible with Toro and Briggs and Stratton engines.

This fuel tank is a genuine OEM replacement part for a wide range of snowblowers and blower vacuums. The fuel tank is located on the exterior of an appliance and allows the operator to top up their machine with more fuel.

Although fuel tanks are made of durable reinforced plastic, they can be knocked easily due to their position on the outside of an appliance. If punctured or dented, fuel will start to leak from the tank and present a potential fire hazard. For safety reasons, a damaged fuel tank should be replaced as soon as possible. Using a set of wrenches, unbolt the damaged tank and reassemble with this replacement part. As a high-quality replacement part, this fuel tank comes sourced from its original manufacturer. It is compatible with Briggs & Stratton and Toro appliances. This tank includes a fuel cap but does not include a fuel line or the hardware needed for assembly.
