Description
Overview:
This Tank Breather Element is a Genuine Kawasaki part for small petrol engines, including the FC150V and FJ100D. It sits in the tank vent path and uses a durable, fuel‐resistant filter media to allow air into the tank while helping keep dust and debris out. By maintaining correct tank venting, it supports steady fuel flow and prevents vacuum lock that can cause poor running or stalling. Suitable for many compact garden and construction machines powered by these engines, such as lawn mowers, scarifiers, plate compactors and generators. It is a direct replacement for OEM No. 491092054 and is designed for a quick, straightforward swap during routine servicing to keep your equipment reliable and ready to work.
