Carburator rebuild kit and over charging for parts
August 11, 2020

I will be contacting you shortly, I ordered a rebuilt kit for my carburator on my 7 HP B&S engine for my powerwasher. You sent me only a needle valve and a seat and charged me approx 23 dollars...WTH.....I look forward to discussing this with a manager

Float Needle and Seat
March 05, 2019

This was the part of the carburetor that REALLY needed to be replaced because (I believe) of the effect of ethanol on small engine fuel systems. The rubber seat was degraded to the point that it would not pass fuel. I ended up with the rebuild kit as a safety measure, but I am keeping the needle and seat set in reserve the next time corn-syrup based fuel slams my engine.
