Carburetor for Briggs & Stratton 494406, 498809, 498809A

Everything lined up perfect. This mower has to be 20 years old. Had to pour a little gas in the carb 3 times to get it to run on its own. Very satisfied with this product.

If I took my mower in to be repaired I’m confident I would have spent at least $80 on labor alone....plus parts. The carburetor/fuel tank is identical to the original and the mower runs like new. The only problem is the ‘priming bulb’ takes many, many depressings to draw enough fuel to perform the three ‘squirts’ necessary to start the engine. The replacement unit INCLUDES 3 additional priming bulbs so I suspect that the issue of depressing the priming bulb to create a vacuum to draw fuel into the priming bulb is the weak link. It’s necessary to depress the primer 10 to 15 times before I can feel the bulb fill with fuel. The original unit required 1 squeeze to draw fuel into the bulb

Fit perfect

Very easy to install . I installed it on my pressure washer

Just be sure to take out the air filter placement screw they have installed for no reason whatsoever, before reassembling
