Description
Overview:
This is a genuine Makita carburettor (OEM 168641-9) for the BHX2501 petrol leaf blower. The unit is built around a robust die-cast aluminium body with durable, fuel‐resistant components to cope with regular outdoor use. Its job is to meter and mix fuel and air accurately so the engine starts easily, idles steadily, and delivers full power under load. As a direct replacement for the original factory unit on the Makita BHX2501, it restores correct fuelling when the old carburettor is worn, blocked, or damaged. Connections and mounting points match the original, helping ensure a straightforward swap with basic hand tools. Being a Genuine Part, it offers the correct specification and fit to maintain reliability, performance, and service life of your Makita blower.
