Carburetor 168815-2

This is a genuine OEM sourced replacement carburetor, it is specially designed for Makita handheld cut-off saws. Its purpose is to mix the air and the gas before the combustible fuel mix goes to the engine. If the engine won't start and the tank is full of fresh fuel or if the engine starts and then quickly dies, the carburetor is likely the problem. This high-quality component has a durable metal body and it is sold individually, please note that it is advised to replace gaskets when installing the new carburetor to ensure the proper seal.
