Product Description

?

This is a manufacturer approved O-Ring designed for lawn and garden equipment. This is the O-Ring that provides an Air Tight seal between Carburetor and Cylinder Head. If doing maintenance on carburetor it is recommended to replace the O-Ring instead of re-using the old one. Over time rings and seals tend to dry out and would no longer provide proper seal compromising engines performance.

Gas trimmer would not run properly

I tried to clean the carburetor out, with no luck. Gas trimmer would start, but would die shortly after starting. I ordered a new carburetor and o-ring, fuel tank which included new fuel lines and filters, and a new spark plug. I also purchased, not through this site, a set of carb adjustment screw drivers. Removal and installation of the new parts took about 10 minutes. Trimmer fired up right away, but didn\'t run properly. After making a few adjustments on the carburetor, with the proper tools, trimmer runs like new. Saved myself a good amount of money, because if this didn\'t work, I was ready to throw it in the trash and get a new trimmer. Carburetor through this site was a factory direct replacement of the original carb I pulled off the trimmer. Could have saved a few bucks buying from another site, buying a knockoff carburetor on Amazon. You will get a genuine Walbro, like was installed from the factory, for your trimmer. Would definitely recommend if your having the same issues I was experiencing. Getting a set of carburetor adjustment screwdrivers was key to making this happen. They are fairly cheap, got a set of 8 for about 18 bucks. If you don\'t want a set, you will need a single d screwdriver to make adjustments. My project was on a Troy-Bbilt TB-22EC trimmer.

1) Remove as much of fuel from the fuel tank and fuel lines as possible.

2) Remove the air breather cover and filter element.

3) Remove the two long screws that hold the air breather housing to the carburetor and
trimmer engine head.

4) Using the pliers, carefully use a twisting/pulling action on the two fuel lines that are still
attached to the carburetor to remove them from the carburetor. Pay careful attention to
which port these fuel lines go to.

5) I suggest using new fuel lines as the old ones were brittle and broke or cracked when they were removed from the carburetor. Using your fingers, attach these fuel lines to the new carburetor port as they came off.

6) Place the new carburetor o-ring on the head and carefully seat the carburetor on it, holding the carburetor in place with your fingers.

7) Place the air cleaner gasket on the carburetor and then place the air cleaner housing onto
this gasket. Insert the two long screws through the air cleaner housing, carburetor and into the head. Tighten them making sure you tighten them so as the seat with equal pressure on to the head as to prevent leaks.

8) Add fresh clean fuel, prime the bulb and start it.

I removed the old carb, and noticed the jets were damaged. The old air cleaner gasket came apart when I removed the air cleaner. I replaced the carb o-ring out of an abundance of caution, because it was inexpensive. Once I had installed the new carb, gasket, and o-ring, the primer worked fine and the trimmer started right up and runs grea t.
