Gasket-air Cleaner 795629

Removed old gasket from the Base-A/C Primer. Cleaned area. Replaced with new gasket.

1. Removed Engine Air Shroud and Air Cleaner Housing.
2. Removed and Replaced Pre Air Cleaner and Air Cleaner Cartridges.
3. Removed and replaced oil and fuel filters.
4. Removed, Gapped and replaced Spark Plugs
5. Drained and added new oil.
6. Oil drain plug on Briggs & Stratton engine was a little different in that there was a cap and the drain plug acted as a valve. To drain oil you had to rotate it.

Remove air cleaner, there are three screws that hold the back plate on remove them, the gasket may stick to the carburetor so you will have to clean the old gasket off, the new part that I got is universal so I had to cut off a tab which was not hard at all. Put the new backplate on and put the air cleaner back on.

Gasket wore out , failed to keep primer circuit closed off to primer bulb on plastic manifold.
Ordered new gasket , installed the new gasket between the plastic manifold and carb ,

I'm going for a mow now.

I tried just cleaning out the carburetor to get fuel moving through it, so I decided to replace the air filter and gasket when I reassembled the engine.
