Parts for Honda GCV160-LAOS3A: Carburetor Parts

It is the carburetor’s job to supply the engine with combustible fuel by mixing clean air and gasoline together. When an engine will not start or runs rough, the carburetor may be to blame. First, change the air filter and cleaning the carburetor, and if the engine is still experiencing problems, check the gaskets. Over time a carburetor bowl gasket set may become worn down, cracked, or ripped. This leaves the carburetor susceptible to leaks in airflow and fuel. This keeps the engine from running efficiently and can cause damage to the carburetor. This repair is easy and takes only a small amount of time in comparison to having to wait for a professional. This OEM carburetor bowl gasket set works for many small engines in lawn and garden maintenance equipment, like lawnmowers, tillers, generators, snowblowers, log splitters, pressure washers, and water pumps. It will fit equipment manufactured by Briggs & Stratton, Cub Cadet, Honda, MTD, and Toro brands.

This is a full carburetor assembly for lawn and garden machines made by Toro or Honda. It will work with many kinds of small engines. A carburetor is responsible for the balance of air and fuel within a combustion engine. When there is a malfunction in the machine, such as an engine failure, it is often related to the carburetor. This repair requires a screwdriver and the purchase of the appropriate gaskets. Remove the carburetor and clean all points of contact before installing the new one and adding oil or fuel. This OEM part is functional in lawnmowers as well as engines made by Toro and Honda.

The carburetor insulator keeps heat from transferring between the engine and carburetor in small lawn equipment engines, helping to prevent damage to the carburetor and ensure the safe operation of the entire engine. This insulator can be damaged or become worn over time, reducing the insulation value and putting the carburetor at risk. To prevent further damage, replace the insulator as soon as it fails or stops working as it should. Wait until the engine has cooled completely to install this part and work in a well-ventilated area. This insulator is designed to work with various engines from Honda, including those in Honda machines, as well as select Toro and Lawn-Boy equipment engines. This insulator can be used on lawnmowers, snowblowers, generators, pressure washers, and other compatible equipment. It is a genuine replacement part from Honda and is sold individually.

This insulator gasket provides seal and heat management. You will find this component between the cylinder housing and the carburetor insulator. A gasket serves as a seal between two surfaces. Its primary purpose is to prevent any kind of leaks. If the seal is airtight, it also blocks small debris from entering and damaging the carburetor. A torn or worn-down gasket can lead to expensive carburetor and engine repairs. A failed insulator gasket may cause carburetor stalling and rough idling. To install this insulator gasket, remove the air filter and its cover. Then, grab a socket wrench and take out the two mounting bolts. You should also remove the throttle spring and governor bail from their original positions. Take out the vacuum hose as well. Then, place the new insulator gasket according to the right orientation. It is a genuine OEM replacement part, made by MTD. It may be used on lawnmowers, snowblowers, pressure washers, generators, or other lawn equipment with small engines made by Briggs & Stratton, Toro, Cub Cadet, Lawn Boy, MTD, or Honda. This part is sold individually.

The carburetor gasket prevents the fuel-air mixture from leaving the cylinder during combustion. This part is essential to avoiding an air leak that will cause the engine to run poorly. Engines are sensitive even to the smallest change in airflow, so a slight leak in the carburetor gasket may cause slight engine roughness at idle. More substantial leaks will cause engine vibrations, misfiring, and engine overheating. If this part rips due to moisture and age, immediate replacement is advised. This is a manufacturer-supplied OEM part that will fit in specific models of portable generators, lawnmowers, snowblowers, and pressure washers from different brands like Toro, Cub Cadet, MTD, and Briggs & Stratton. It comes as an individual component.

This genuine OEM replacement air guide gasket moves a mixture of air and fuel from the carburetor to the combustion chamber on small or medium sized gas-powered lawn mower engines. It is important that this mixture remains uncontaminated, as a muddied fuel mixture could damage the engine. Therefore, the air guide must be well sealed by an air guide gasket. Gaskets experience a lot of heat and pressure and will degrade over time. When an air guide gasket blows, the combustion chamber will not get the correct amount of fuel and the engine may not start. Some other signs of a damaged gasket include an engine that dies shortly after starting, hard starts, backfires, and harsh vibrations. Use a socket wrench set to disassemble the air filter, filter housing, and carburetor. Be sure to only attempt this repair after the engine has cooled and the fuel tank is drained. This high-quality replacement part is compatible with Honda and Toro engines and comes sourced from the original manufacturer. This part does not include any additional hardware.
