Description
Overview:
The Impulse Hose 4282 141 8600 is a Genuine Stihl OEM spare for backpack blowers such as the BR 500 and BR 600. This flexible connector maintains the impulse pathway between the engine and intake assembly, helping the carburettor meter fuel correctly and keeping idle and acceleration stable. Made from durable, oil- and fuel‐resistant elastomer in a compact, moulded form, it resists cracking and hardening under heat and vibration. When a hose becomes worn, split or loose, engines can run erratically or stall; replacing it restores reliable performance. Designed to fit precisely on Stihl professional blowers, it connects cleanly at the air filter/manifold area and seats securely without modification, making it a practical, straightforward maintenance part for workshop and site use.
Key Features:
- Genuine Stihl OEM part for assured fit and function
- Correct routing and bore to maintain a stable impulse signal to the carburettor
- Fuel-, oil- and heat-resistant elastomer for long service life
- Moulded shape for a secure, leak‐free connection at the manifold side
- Helps cure hard starting, poor idle and hesitation caused by split hoses
- Simple to fit with standard hand tools, reducing downtime
- Suited to heavy, daily use in professional grounds and site work
- Compatible with multiple Stihl blower models for easy stocking
Typical Applications:
Replacing a cracked, perished or loose impulse hose on Stihl backpack blowers to restore consistent carburettor operation. Ideal for routine servicing, pre‐season checks, and repairs after exposure to fuel, oil, heat, or vibration. Suitable for landscaping, grounds maintenance, municipal leaf clearing, and contractor use on building sites and large properties.
