Boot-Carb. 545190501

This genuine OEM carburetor intake boot adapter is a rubber replacement part used in trimmers to connect the carburetor to the carburetor adapter. It ensures a proper seal and allows the air-fuel mixture to flow into the combustion chamber. Over time, the boot adapter may wear out, warp, or develop cracks. Signs of a broken boot adapter include air or fuel leaks around the carburetor and engine issues like rough idling, stalling, or misfires. Using a damaged boot adapter can lead to reduced power and premature wear. To replace the boot adapter, you will need a screwdriver, pliers, a wrench, and a nut driver. Consult your user manual for guidance on accessing the carburetor through the airbox housing. Remove the air filter and airbox base, then locate and remove the faulty air intake boot from the carburetor. Please keep in mind that this boot adapter is not included with the carburetor kit or the carburetor adapter
