Parts for Craftsman 358791540: Cylinder / Crankshaft / Crankcase Parts

Combustion engines are quite loud by nature, and their sound and emissions are toned down through the use of a muffler system. In small engines, the muffler often attaches directly to the cylinder to capture the gases and reduce noise. Should that connection weaken or loosen, a replacement bolt may need to be installed to ensure a tight seal and optimal engine performance. This replacement muffler bolt is meant to be installed on edgers, blowers, trimmers and pruners from brands like Poulan, Jonesred, Weed Eater and Husqvarna. This is an OEM replacement part and is going to be responsible for fastening the machine's muffler to the cylinder. It will require the proper hex key to install properly and is considered an easy repair frequently required on many small machines.

This is a replacement purge bulb. This is a genuine OEM part made by Husqvarna and has been sourced directly from the manufacturer.

A piston ring is a component located between a piston and a cylinder and helps the engine operate correctly. This component maintains gas compression between the cylinder wall and piston, makes lubricating oil to prevent scuffing, transfers heat from the crown of the piston to the cylinder, and prevents the piston from hitting the cylinder wall. There are several signs that a piston ring needs to be replaced. Excessive smoke may come out of the engine, oil may be used more rapidly, and your equipment might have a decreased performance without the power it used to have. If the engine is still in good shape, but the rings have lost their tension, replacing the piston ring is the best solution. Inspecting the cylinder for wear is also important since damaged piston rings can lead to cylinder wear. This piston ring is a genuine OEM product directly from the manufacturer.
