Product Description
?This is a Genuine OEM Authorized Gasket 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. When replacing this Gasket you would need a Screwdriver and a set of Wrenches.
