Mantis Tiller Engine

Piston rings help to maintain the pressure between the piston and cylinder wall. If the compressed gas between these two parts begins to leak out, the engine will not be able to put out enough energy, and the lawn appliance will stop working. Piston rings can wear out over time due to engine overheating or faulty ignition in the engine. A telltale sign of a burnt-out piston ring is whitish-grey smoke coming from the appliance. Extreme oil inefficiency is another sign. This part is a genuine OEM part designed for Echo or Mantis handheld yard tools such as a chainsaw, hedge trimmer, leaf blower, edger, pole pruner, or tiller engine. It does not ship with other parts. Any additional parts needed to install the piston ring must be ordered independently.

This is a cylinder head used in several types of lawn and garden equipment. The cylinder head is the component that sits on top of the engine. It is responsible for closing the combustion chamber. The gap in between the head and the engine is filled with a head gasket. The cylinder head also helps ensure that the cylinder stays properly lubricated at all times. If the cylinder head has failed, it can cause dropped engine performance, low oil levels, and smoke may come from the exhaust.If the cylinder head needs to be replaced, the grass screen and shield will need to be removed. Take the bolts out of the engine cover before removing the cover. Remove the engine shroud and the bolts that hold the pump bracket to the head. The valve cover should be removed to find the cylinder head. Take the old one out and insert the new one before reassembling the equipment.This cylinder head is a genuine OEM replacement part that is directly sourced from the manufacturer. It is sold as an individual part. The cylinder head is compatible with hedge trimmers, leaf blowers, and chipper shredders made by Shindaiwa, Mantis, and Echo.
