Description

This is a replacement float valve, sometimes called a float valve needle. The purpose of the float valve is to stop excess fuel at the float bowl of the carburetor. When there is no gas, the float valve will move downward, which will allow the gas to move into the bowl until it reaches a specific height. Sometimes, problems can occur with the float valve. It might not be fitted properly, it could have corroded, or it may have broken. If there is fuel left in the carburetor for extended periods, it can cause the engine not to start properly. This genuine OEM replacement part is used in a range of different types of small engines, such as those in snowblowers, lawn mowers, and wood chippers. This OEM float valve is compatible with brands like Craftsman, Briggs & Stratton, Toro, Cub Cadet, Lawn-Boy, Wheel Horse, and Simplicity.
