is the part of my carb?

[Mopar4u]

was sweeping my garage floor after going through the carb on the below husky with the below briggs intek twin. found the below red oring on the floor, no idea what its off of. does it look like anything off the carb? I took the linkages, carb bowl, float, needle, plastic fuel transfer tower apart. i did not remove the main jets or the fuel solenoid. i know the oring between the float bowl and transfer tower is present.

looks rather like a float needle seat to be me

thats what i thought but seems large for a seat. does this engine have a rubber seat?

Bert is correct, it is a float needle seat for a Briggs carb.

That's too big for a Briggs seat... I don't ever remember seeing a red O ring in a V twin kit......

It does look like the o ring that goes in the bowl on the transfer tube though...........

I take that back too small for a that oring I was talking about... I'll have to open a kit and put a seat on my finger nail to see.........

Mopar take a few pics at different angles side view also........

Did you work on a briggs 6 hp carb recently ??

 

[Boudreaux In Eunice La.]

Ok I tore a kit apart and put in on my nail.. Nope it's not a briggs seat you got.... I put it in the same position as his...

My nail looks a lil smaller than his...... My seat doesn't even get close to the middle of my nail.....

Mopar's is over halfway his nail.......

I can make a video and post it if y'll want me too,,,,,,,,,

the red oring is .300” dia x .060” thick. all these rings/seals in the below link are accounted for in the nikki twin carb i worked on. is it safe to say the red oring didnt come out of the nikki twin carb? thats all i care about.

That's a Nikki chinese knock off... I never seen a red o ring or any o ring like that in a Nikki carb.... Maybe a part on the outside of the carb for that Snow Blower application ........
