Genuine Manufacturer Approved Carburetor Kit which includes a Metal Body Carburetor and a Carburetor Gasket. It is used on some Husqvarna Gas Powered String Trimmers. The purpose of this part is to mix air and gas before the fuel mix goes to the engine. If the engine won\'t start and the tank is full of fresh fuel, test the carburetor by removing the air filter and pouring about a teaspoon of fuel into the carburetor. Pull the starter rope. If the engine starts and then quickly dies, the carburetor is likely the problem.
