Craftsman Hose, Tube & Fitting

This is a genuine OEM primer hose replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is used on tillers and other outdoor power equipment with a primer bulb assembly. The hose is the part of the assembly that runs from the fuel tank to the carburetor. When the primer bulb is pressed, fuel is collected from the tank and pushed into the carburetor to start the engine. Any unused fuel is released back into the fuel tank. If the primer hose has cracks or holes in it, the vacuum inside the hose will be lost and the primer bulb will not force the fuel to the carburetor. These cracks or holes can occur over time due to fuel eroding the hose material. If the primer bulb is not working and fuel cannot be seen in the tube, the primer hose should be inspected and replaced if necessary.Before replacing a primer hose, empty the fuel from the fuel tank and fuel lines into a clean container. Remove the spark plug. Remove and replace the primer hose. After refueling, check the primer bulb to ensure the primer hose is pulling fuel. This primer hose is clear plastic material; it is sold as an individual unit. This hose is compatible with tillers, chippers, shredders, and other small engines manufactured by Cub Cadet, MTD, and Yard Machines.

A fuel inlet is a connector that allows gasoline from the fuel line of an engine to pass through it into the carburetor. Once in the carburetor, the fuel mixes with air and passes into the cylinder, where it ignites to create power for the engine. Thus, the fuel inlet is attached on the one side the carburetor and to the fuel pipe, or line, on the other. This inlet is used in power tools such as lawn mowers, snowblowers, edgers, pressure washers, chippers, and generators. Periodically, since it is made partially of plastic, the fuel inlet will weather and crack so that it is no longer fuel tight. The main sign to watch out for with fuel inlets is gasoline leakage. This is always a dangerous situation. The user may have to remove the carburetor housing cover to determine whether the leak comes from the fuel line or the inlet valve. It is a good idea to replace each of these pieces at the same time. When choosing a replacement part for the fuel inlet, always use a genuine OEM replacement part like this one. This inlet is compatible with power tools made by Tecumseh, Briggs & Stratton, Toro, MTD, Lawn-Boy, and Cub Cadet.

This is a fuel fitting that is part of the fuel assembly on many models of snowblowers and lawnmowers with engines. It's made of durable metal and plastic. The part is used to move fuel from the fuel tank into the engine carburetor. The fuel fitting is responsible for drawing the pressure needed to pump fuel so the lawn and garden equipment can operate. The fuel fitting can be damaged through use or impact and will no longer work as expected. If this occurs, the fuel fitting will need to be replaced.Depending on the equipment that contains the fuel fitting, tools for a replacement might include a pair of pliers, a screwdriver, and a hex key. If a visual inspection shows that the fuel fitting is cracked, turn off the equipment and disconnect the spark plug wire. Remove the fuel fitting from the carburetor and the fuel tank and replace it with a new part.This fuel fitting is designed to be used with lawn mowers and snowblowers manufactured by Lawn-Boy, Toro, Tecumseh, and Cub Cadet. It is sold as an individual part. This is a genuine OEM replacement part that is directly sourced from the manufacturer.

This breather tube is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is used on various lawn mowers and small engines to provide ventilation to the engine crankcase and prevent pressure buildup. It attaches to the cylinder assembly so that air can flow in and out and prevent damage to the engine. The breather tube on lawnmowers also has a reed that lubricates the pistons by collecting oil and sending it back to the crankcase. Over time, the breather tube may become dry and brittle, resulting in cracks. A damaged breather tube can lead to blown seals and gaskets, oil leaks, and reduced engine performance. Oil leaks are identified by bluish smoke coming from the exhaust, engine backfiring, or a decrease in overall performance. If this occurs, check the breather tube for clogs or damage. Replacing the breather tube requires a cooled-down muffler and screwdriver. Remove the muffler to reach the tube. Remove the screws holding the tube in place. Remove the tube and check for damage and clogs. Replace with a new tube if it is damaged. Reinstall the tube and screws. Reinstall the muffler. This breather tube is made of durable rubber and is sold as an individual part. The tube does not come with retaining screws. It is compatible with lawn mowers and small engines manufactured by Tecumseh, Toro, and Cub Cadet.
