Husqvarna String Trimmer Carburetor

This is a replacement carburetor for Husqvarna string trimmers and is also used on some Craftsman models. It consists of an aluminum body with a bright blue choke and cherry red primer bulb. Engines rely on a mixture of fuel and air for proper operation. In a small engine, the fuel and air mix inside the carburetor. This is achieved with a series of small channels, which release a fine mist of fuel into a vortex of air. When one of these channels gets clogged, it can negatively impact engine performance. Carburetors can often be cleaned with a commercial carburetor cleaning spray, but this is sometimes not sufficient to clean a badly clogged carburetor. In this case, other measures such as hypersonic cleaners can often be effective, but they’re not always worth the cost. The alternative is replacing the entire carburetor, which can be done using this kit. This is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer, and it is sold individually. A heat shield is also included with the kit.
