This is a Genuine OEM replacement part used on variety of Lawn and Garden Equipment Engines. This part is made out of Rubber and it is sold individually. If the carburetor is leaking fuel it is recommended to replace the Bowl Gasket. Gaskets and O-rings are a common source of problems. They eventually shrink, causing fuel and air leaks that lead to poor engine performance.

Exact fit
I had tried to find this part at a local hardware store that is well known for stocking a wide range of lawnmower parts. But, to no avail. They stocked the original part, but not in the size I needed. I tried to substitute an o-ring. They didn't have an exact fit. I tried purchasing some gasket material to make my own. That turned out to be a disaster. Nothing but the original part was going to work. I tried Amazon. They didn't have it. With a little more research, I found your website. To tell you the truth, I wasn't sure if I ordered the right part due to the nomenclature and cross- referencing. But when I received it it turned out to be a perfect fit. Whew! No more gasoline leaks.

Remove carburetor, disassemble it, clean all internal parts with carb cleaner and blow out all ports with compressed air. Reassemble the carb with new float needle and bowl seal. Drain motor oil and replace with fresh oil. Since the oil had a quart of gasoline in it. I will change the oil again after 5 hours of use.

I noticed a small puddle on the floor. It was oil and gas mixed. Then I checked the oil level on the dipstick and it was way over full and smelled like gas. After some research I found out that the Briggs & Stratton engines (mine is a 18hp Intec) are known for the needle valve in the carburetor to go bad. The reason is that the tip of the
... Read more brass valve is rubber to make the seal. Also make sure you replace the seat that the needle valve goes into because it will be worn too. A 1/4\" tap fits perfectly into the seat. thread it down (carefully) and stop as soon as you feel it bottom out. I used a 5/16 socket that I drilled out so the 1/4 - 20 x 1 1/2 bolt would fit through it. Then sit the 5/16 socket over the seat and place a washer on the 1/4-20 bolt and thread into the old seat. This works as a puller and will lift the old seat out. Note: check the old seat before pulling it out to see how much protrudes out of the hole. To install the new one put a little oil on it and place it straight in the hole and use that same 1/4 - 20 bolt with a nut on the end now to drive it into the hole. Don\'t forget to make it the same protruding out as the old one. Reassemble the bowl on the carburetor and your done. Take your time and the repair will go pretty easy.
