This genuine OEM replacement carburetor is designed for use with Briggs and Stratton engines. It mixes air and gas before the fuel mix goes to the engine. This kit includes a metal body carburetor, gasket and a choke assembly.
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.
To complete this repair you would need a screwdriver.
