Compatible Models

We do our best to list all compatible models. Although this may be the part you need, your exact model may not appear below.

Compatible equipment / model
  • Murray 405000X8C riding mower
  • 13.5 HP Briggs & Stratton engine configuration used on Murray 405000X8C

Product Overview

A mower that has sat through a season can develop a plugged jet, sticky float, or hardened fuel deposits that make it difficult to start and keep running. Replacing the carburetor can be faster and more dependable than repeated cleaning when the body or internal passages are damaged.

This carburetor is intended for the listed Murray mower application. Because Murray used different engines across production runs, the engine identification label and the old carburetor are the final fitment checks.
