Description
Overview:
This straight inline fuel tap is a non-genuine replacement for Briggs & Stratton reference 494768, designed to control fuel flow on small petrol engines. Made from durable black plastic with a simple red quarter‐turn lever, it provides reliable ON/OFF shut‐off for maintenance, storage, or transport. The tap has barbed 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) inlet and outlet spigots to suit 6-8 mm fuel hose (approx. 1/4-5/16 inch), giving a snug, leak‐resistant connection. It is suitable for common garden and construction equipment such as lawn mowers and portable generators, including many machines using small Briggs & Stratton engines. Use it as a straightforward inline shut‐off to help prevent flooding, ease carburettor servicing, and manage fuel when storing equipment.
