Description

This genuine MTD petcock assembly can be used as a replacement part for small engine appliances including engines, lawn mowers, and snowblowers. A petcock is a valve in a small engine that shuts off the fuel. In order to prevent the carburetor from accumulating debris and gunk inside the engine, the petcock can be turned off when the machine is not in use.A petcock might malfunction if it is not switched to its off position when the machine in question is not being used; this can cause the fuel to leak into the float bowls. If this leak is paired with a faulty carburetor, permanent damage can be inflicted on the engine and the ability of the appliance to operate as usual. If this occurs on an appliance, it is best to replace the petcock immediately, as there will be associated risk of long-term damage and the possibility of greater deterioration and harmful fuel leakage. Always wear gloves when handling, repairing, and operating outdoor equipment. This spacer part is compatible with the brands MTD, Honda, Toro, and Cub Cadet.
