Power Distributors 5018K Fuel Filter Assembly 150 Micron

Product Description

The POWER DISTRIBUTORS 5018K is a fuel filter assembly designed for small gasoline engines in the 7HP to 15HP range that operate without a fuel pump. Rated at 150 micron filtration, this assembly helps protect the carburetor and fuel system from debris and particulate contamination. It is a DIY-grade replacement corresponding to Briggs and Stratton service part 298090S, making it a practical choice for technicians and equipment owners who service outdoor power equipment outside of a dealer environment. The unit ships individually and is straightforward to install with basic hand tools.

This fuel filter assembly is intended for use on small horizontal and vertical shaft engines in the 7HP to 15HP output range that rely on gravity feed rather than a mechanical fuel pump. Typical applications include walk-behind lawn mowers, tillers, generators, and similar outdoor power equipment powered by compatible Briggs and Stratton engines. It is not designed for fuel-pumped engine configurations. Service technicians and DIY users performing routine seasonal maintenance or troubleshooting fuel delivery issues will find this a direct-fit option.

Installation Notes

Fuel filter replacement is typically performed by small engine technicians or experienced DIY users. Before servicing, shut off the fuel supply valve if equipped and allow the engine to cool completely. Work in a well-ventilated area away from ignition sources and have appropriate fuel-safe rags or a catch container on hand to manage residual fuel in the line. Verify fuel line inner diameter compatibility and ensure all clamps or connections are secure before returning the equipment to service.
