Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Subaru Robin Carburetor Replacement EX13 EX17 EX17D SP17 SP170 Engine - 277-62301-30, 277-62301-50 by Ricardo Mercado

Identical to OEM parts

I have a Rigid Power washing machine with a Subaru/Robins SP170 engine. Unfortunately I left gas in it for a couple of years and it clogged the carburetor. The clue for me was that I had gas at the bowl drain but the spark plugs were dry after repeated attempts to start. I squirted some gasoline into the old carburetor's air intake and it ignited immediately. I bought a new Chinese carburetor and just replaced it without making any changes to the settings. It started on the first puff and I used it continuously for about an hour and it never missed a beat. Some people have complained about the quality of the pads. They worked for me but the hole spacing was a little off but other than that it's fine. Definitely recommend. You can buy a genuine Mikuni carburetor, but you're looking for at least a hundred dollars. It cost me less than $20.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
