Description
Overview:
This Carb Overhaul Kit is a genuine Briggs & Stratton replacement for servicing small-engine carburettors. Supplied as OEM No. 498260, it refreshes the sealing and metering parts that wear with age, helping restore smooth starting, stable idling, and consistent power. The kit typically includes fuel‐resistant rubber seals and diaphragms, fibre/paper gaskets, and small metal items needed to refurbish the carb body. It is suitable for a range of Briggs & Stratton engines used on walk‐behind lawn mowers, garden equipment, and compact construction tools. Designed for an accurate fit on models such as 126M02-1005-F1 650 and 126M02-1006-F1 675, this Genuine Part supports reliable performance without replacing the entire carburettor. A practical choice for routine maintenance by tradespeople, groundskeepers, and DIY users.
