It is not an exact replacement for a Valbro carburetor. Requires modification to air intake housing

I ordered this to replace the carburetor on my Craftsman LT100 self propelled mower. The butterfly and the shroud around it are not the same as the original Walbro carburetor. The throttle body is larger and extends further into the air intake pipe. The larger size does not allow you to install it properly on the carburetor. I had to saw off some of the plastic to allow the panel to open/close freely. The casting around the float chamber is also different. I had to remove some of the air intake plastic to attach it to the carburetor. It took about 20 minutes to figure out what was wrong and then make the necessary changes. I will be ordering a different carburetor for my next repair project.

Pros
  • Convenient item
Cons
  • Good but not great
