Description
Fuel filters are created to strain out gas before it reaches the carburetor in lawnmowers and other gardening tools. Located in the fuel line or the fuel tank, it prevents unwanted debris from reaching the carburetor, which can cause engine damage. If the fuel filter is damaged or becomes clogged with material, it no longer offers the same protection to the carburetor. This can lead to difficulty starting the lawnmower and decreased performance. Correcting this issue early can prevent damage that might require a new lawnmower. Maintenance of the lawnmower by adding fuel stabilizer, changing the oil, and replacing the air filter will increase the life of lawn care equioment. Even if no issues are present, the fuel filter should be replaced after about 200 hours of use. Disconnecting the spark plug should be done prior to installing a new fuel filter. This fuel filter is a genuine OEM component directly from the manufacturer and comes as an individual part. It can be used with various Craftsman, Cub Cadet, Murray, Yard Machines, MTD, Huskee, Bolens, Yard-Man, and Mastercut lawnmowers, tillers, blowers, and wood chippers.
