FAQ

This 1/4" inline valve is designed for a wide range of lawn mowers, tractors, and small engines. It is compatible with equipment from Briggs & Stratton, John Deere, Toro, Cub Cadet, Exmark, Snapper, and Murray. It replaces OEM part numbers 494768, 698183, 493960, 697947, 698181, 5019H, 5019K, AM36141, AM107340, 54-3150, 1-603770, 07-406, 120-212, 2-4507, 3-4212, 7034212, and 7034212YP.
You should replace the valve if you notice fuel leaking from the valve body, if the internal mechanism is stuck in the 'off' position, or if it fails to stop the flow of fuel completely when turned. If your engine is flooding or hard to start, a leaking valve may be allowing fuel to bypass into the carburetor while the machine is in storage.
Installation is straightforward and typically takes 10–15 minutes. First, ensure the engine is cool and the area is well-ventilated. Use a pair of pliers to slide the existing hose clamps away from the old valve, pull the fuel lines off, and remove the old unit. Insert the new valve into the fuel line, ensuring the flow direction is correct, and secure it using the included clamps. Always check for leaks after restarting the engine.
The primary cause of failure is the degradation of internal seals due to modern ethanol-blended fuels, which can cause the rubber components to harden or swell. Additionally, debris or sediment from the fuel tank can become lodged in the valve, preventing a proper seal or restricting fuel flow to the carburetor.
When replacing the valve, it is a good practice to inspect your fuel lines for cracks, hardening, or dry rot. If the lines are brittle, they should be replaced simultaneously to prevent leaks. You should also check your fuel filter to ensure it is not clogged, as restricted fuel flow can put unnecessary strain on the fuel pump and carburetor.
