Parts for Mtd 270-WU: Engine Shroud Parts

The carburetor gasket creats an airtight seal between the carburetor and the engine block or the heat shield. Over time, gaskets can wear down and degrade due to regular use and constant exposure to heat. This can cause air leakage and result in poor engine performance or total engine failure in some cases. It can also lead to further damage if not repaired immediately. In the event that the carburetor gasket needs replaced, this model can provide the exact fit for compatible engines. This genuine OEM carburetor gasket is a replacement part designed for use with snowblower engines from MTD, Troy-Bilt, Yard Machines, Yard-Man, and Cub Cadet. The gasket is made of durable metal and will require pliers and a socket set to replace. Let the engine cool completely before performing any repairs and drain all fuel before working on the carburetor or other internal engine components to prevent spillage or leaks. This part is sold individually and does not include any hardware.

A gas powered engine often requires priming before it can run, which means injecting some of the fuel into the engine's carburetor. Here, a careful balance of air and gas will receive a spark that causes combustion. The most common way to prime an engine is to use a primer assembly that is activated by a bulb that is pressed to create suction and draw fuel into a reservoir or carburetor. This replacement fuel bulb is for snowblowers that rely on gas powered engines to run. The fuel bulb is very flexible and made to endure seasonal conditions. It works with Craftsman, Yard Machines, MTD, Troy Bilt, and Bolens snowblowers. This is an OEM replacement part that fits into the cover assembly and which requires only a wrench to replace and install. It is sold individually, and other components of the priming assembly may be needed.

This is a genuine replacement ignition key that is manufactured by MTD for use in select models of outdoor power equipment. The ignition key is a plastic piece that is inserted into the ignition cylinder to start the machine. Turning the plastic key will signal to the engine to fire. This is a durable plastic piece, but it can become damaged or lost over time, which will render the machine unable to start. Replacing it will be necessary in order to operate the unit. This genuine OEM ignition key is manufactured to exact standards. It can be used in snowblowers and snow throwers from MTD, Yard Machines, Troy-Bilt, Cub Cadet, Yard-Man, and Husky. The durable plastic key is sold as an individual unit and does not require any tools for installation. This is a simple replacement that should only take a couple of minutes. In the event that the old key is damaged or stuck in the ignition, it may take more effort. It is important to disconnect the power supply for safety before performing any repairs, as well as to wear gloves for hand protection.
