Review on 591378 Carburetor For Briggs & Stratton 10HP 305 - Fits 5000 5550 6200 8550 Models by John Hickey

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Choke valve is not correct for a direct replacement.

installed the oem choke butterfly valve onto the new carb in order to get the engine to start. the choke valve on the oem unit has one hole drilled into it. the replacement has 2. doesn't allow enough vacuum to pull fuel. installed the oem part and fired right up. not a direct oem replacement. it'll work as long as you have the oem to pull the correct pieces off.

Pros
  • Lawn Mower Accessories
Cons
  • The carburetor may cause inconsistent engine performance
