Whirlpool Type 280-0 Parts

This part is an inlet needle. This inlet needle works like a valve to transport fuel into the carburetor bowl when the bowl has drained and then stops fuel intake when the carburetor bowl is full. A new inlet needle may be needed if the fuel is not flowing into the bowl as it is supposed to. This can be evident if the carburetor floods or if the engine does not have enough fuel when it's operating at high speeds. A visual inspection of the inlet needle can also be a good indicator of whether or not it needs to be replaced. If any physical signs of damage are present, the inlet needle will need to be replaced. Remember to wear gloves when operating or performing care and maintenance on any outdoor power equipment machines.This part is a genuine Tecumseh part and is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer and it is sold individually. This inlet needle is compatible with snowblowers manufactured by Tecumseh and Toro.

The float shaft and pin are a genuine replacement for select Tecumseh carburetors on small lawn and garden equipment engines. The float shaft and pin are responsible for maintaining the fuel level within the carburetor. Over time because of repetitive motion, the float pin and shaft can break or become damaged, which will stop the carburetor from functioning properly. If the carburetor cannot function, the engine will not be able to perform. If left unattended, the engine and carburetor could fail completely or bigger issues could occur. Replacing the float is essential to getting the equipment back in order. This genuine float shaft and pin is designed for use on machines from Tecumseh, Poulan, Husqvarna, Lawn Boy, Cub Cadet, MTD, and Craftsman, and is compatible with a number of models. The fuel system should be drained and the engine should be cool before any engine repairs are started. Always wear gloves for hand protection. This float shaft and pin are made of durable materials and sold as a unit. No additional hardware or parts are included.
