Description

This float bowl is a part associated with the carburetor of a small engine for lawn and garden equipment like lawn tractors. The component is mounted on the side of the carburetor and is a small fuel tank fed by the regular fuel tank. It floats in the fuel, and as the level drops, the float also drops to allow more fuel into the chamber. When it fills, the float bowl moves up and closes the float needle so fuel isn’t released. Some signs that a float bowl may not be working correctly include an engine stalling at high speeds, an engine that keeps flooding, or fuel that is too lean or too rich. Replacement requires turning off the flow of fuel, removing the drain plug, and placing a screwdriver against the pin holding the hinges of the float. This float bowl is a genuine OEM product directly from the manufacturer and comes as an individual item. It is designed for use with Briggs & Stratton, Simplicity, and Cub Cadet lawnmowers and lawn tractors. The float bowl comes with a screw, a washer, and an O-ring and requires basic tools to install.
