Description

This is a genuine replacement carburetor designed for lawn mowers and other yard machines. These engines require a combination of air and fuel to operate. When combined correctly, the air/fuel mixture is combusted using a spark from the spark plug, which propels the pistons up, turning the crankshaft and operating the engine. Over time and through normal use, the carburetor is subjected to high heat, gasoline, and potential contaminants. Many parts can fail, ranging from gaskets to the float to the carb itself. Symptoms of a failing carburetor can include the engine spitting and sputtering, failure to crank, and more. Replacing the carburetor takes a little time, but is relatively simple. Make sure the spark plug wire has been removed. The airbox and filter must also be removed. The fuel line should be removed from the carburetor and crimped shut. Remove the bolts holding the carburetor in place and then remove the old carb. Replace it with the new one and reassemble the engine by following the steps above in reverse order. This is a genuine OEM replacement carburetor designed for Briggs & Stratton engines. It is compatible with 15 different engines and is sold separately. Note that it does not include mounting hardware.
