This is an authentic Briggs & Stratton replacement part that has been sourced from the original manufacturer to be used with generator engines. The spark arrester screen connects to the muffler and is used to prevent embers from being discharged through the exhaust gasses. Over time the screen can become clogged from exhaust discharge and can inhibit the gasses from escaping. This item is available as an individual replacement part.

Drained all the old gas out of the tank. Took off the carburetor and cleaned it all out. Cleaned out the gas tank as good as I could. Reassembled and put on new gas line. Put on new air filter and spark plug. Installed new battery and changed the oil. Runs like a new one.
