Craftsman Chipper Shredder Engine

This camshaft assembly is an original OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer, MTD. It is sold individually. A camshaft assembly is a piece of hardware important to engines. It is designed for use with pieces of outdoor lawn and garden power equipment that have small engines, such as a tiller, a chipper, a shredder, a log splitter, and a snow blower. It is compatible with products by brands such as MTD, Cub Cadet, Yard Machines, and Troy-Bilt.The camshaft assembly part is very important when it comes to the mechanical operation of an engine. It rotates in conjunction with the crankshaft of the machine. It performs an important service that involves combining air and fuel as they enter cylinders and the gasses released from them.The replacement or repair process of the camshaft assembly should be straightforward, but the user replacing the part should always be sure to wear gloves during any assembly, replacement, or installation processes. The user should also refer to the owner's manual of their equipment and any guiding diagrams that clarify the placement location.

The flywheel is an engine component that attaches to a rotating shaft which helps to provide smooth power delivery from the motor to the machine. Some of the signs of a bad flywheel include strange noises when the motor starts, grabbing when the clutch engages, vibrations, and a burning smell.The flywheel is made from durable metal, but it could still need to be replaced in time. It could be damaged from debris, or it could simply be worn out from use over the years. If there is an issue with the flywheel, it should be replaced it before it causes more problems with their engines and the capabilities of their machines.This flywheel is for use with certain engine models from MTD, Troy-Bilt, Yard Machines, Craftsman, Columbia, and Cub Cadet. Each of the flywheels is made from quality materials and is sold individually. It is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced from the manufacturer.

This part is a crankcase cover. The crankcase itself is what shields the crankshaft from any dirt or debris that would damage the engine. The crankcase is a pressurization chamber for the fuel-air mixture. This part is a cover for the crankcase. It's important that this shield is intact because any dirt or debris that gets into the engine can cause the engine to fail.A new crankcase cover may be needed if the crankcase cover is dented, broken, or damaged in any way. A visual inspection is sufficient. Remember to wear gloves when operating or performing care and maintenance on any outdoor power equipment machines.This part is a genuine MTD part and is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is sold individually. This crankcase cover is compatible with engines, lawnmowers, tillers, log splitters, chippers, shredders, and trimmers manufactured by MTD, Yard Machines, Cub Cadet, Husky, Yard-Man, and Troy-Bilt.

This cylinder head is made for use in many types of lawn and garden equipment. The cylinder head is located on top of the engine in the machinery. It is tasked with making sure the combustion chamber is sealed shut. The gap between the engine and the cylinder head will be filled using a head gasket. Another responsibility of the cylinder head is ensuring the cylinder is constantly lubricated. If the cylinder head isn't working, it may cause low oil levels, lowered engine performance, and exhaust smoke.To inspect the cylinder head, the grass shield and screen should first be removed. Remove the engine cover by taking out all of the bolts that secure it. Remove the engine shroud and the bolts that connect the head to the pump bracket. The cylinder head will be located under the valve cover. Remove it and install the replacement part before using the tool.This cylinder head is an authentic OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is sold individually. The cylinder head is created to be compatible with lawnmowers, string trimmers, edgers, log splitters, and wood chippers manufactured by MTD, Cub Cadet, and Craftsman.

This authentic OEM replacement push rod connects to the camshaft on small or medium sized gas-powered lawn tractor engines, and as the camshaft turns, the push rod transfers that motion into the valves. Without a functioning push rod, the valves will not open and the engine will not work. Push rods also act as transferring units that bring oil through the valves and into the camshaft. If these parts start to stick due to poor lubrication, push rods can bend and will no longer work properly. It is also possible, though rare, for a push rod to bend due to general metal fatigue over time. To identify a bent push rod, listen for a ticking sound in the engine and look out for any slipping gears. Accessing the push rods will mean taking apart the camshaft and valves and may require the user's manual. This replacement part is sourced from its original manufacturer and is compatible with Craftsman and Briggs & Stratton lawn tractors. It ships individually.

This is a breather designed to be used on various types of lawn and garden equipment. The breather is an essential part that is responsible for venting out excess air from the engine's crankcase.

In this situation, the breather will need to be replaced.Replacing the breather will require a socket set, a nut driver, a Phillips head screwdriver, and a set of pliers. Inspecting the breather or making a replacement starts with removing the equipment's muffler. This will give access to the original breather for visual inspection. If it has damage, it should be removed. The new part can be replaced before reassembling the tool.This breather is a genuine OEM replacement part that is sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is sold as an individual component. The breather is designed to fit onto lawnmowers, snowblowers, tillers, generators, and wood chippers manufactured by Briggs & Stratton, Craftsman, Toro, Cub Cadet, Tecumseh, Lawn-Boy, MTD, and Simplicity.

Here is a genuine replacement governor shaft that can be used with many types of small engines. The metal governor shaft is used in the cylinder cover to help hold the governor spool and the gear. Without a properly functioning governor shaft, it will cause performance issues with the machine. The shaft is made from metal, and it is durable. However, there may still be a need to replace it at some point. It could have become corroded or damaged, or it could have become lost during another repair. Regardless of the reason, owners will want to replace it sooner rather than later. A wrench and pliers will be needed to make the replacement.

This is a genuine replacement exhaust valve. The exhaust valve allows the engine to exhaust as needed. This part also includes the retaining ring, which holds the valve in place as it moves in and out to allow the exhaust to escape from the system. Over time and due to repetitive motion, this valve can break down or become damaged. A replacement will be necessary for proper operation of the machine. If the exhaust valve is faulty, the engine may not run correctly. It may not run at all. A replacement will ensure proper operation of outdoor equipment. Be sure to wear gloves and allow the engine to cool completely before doing any type of engine repairs. This OEM exhaust valve is manufactured by Tecumseh.
