What It Is

This is a complete aftermarket carburetor designed to replace the Nikki carburetor on specific Briggs & Stratton Intek engines. It’s intended for walk-behind mowers, lawn tractors, and other equipment using the 190cc, 205cc, or 206cc Intek OHV engines (6.75–8.5 ft-lbs gross torque).

Fitment & Compatibility

Check these before buying:

• Engine model/spec: Only fits Briggs Intek 190, 850 Series (6.75 OHV), 900 Series (190cc, 205cc, 206cc). Not for older L-head or Vanguard engines.
• OEM replacement numbers: Directly replaces 215369, 214706, 696065, 215434, 697422, 214706T, 798654, 792970, 811064, 32711242, 797180. Verify your old carb’s part number.
• Physical fit: Measure mounting stud spacing (approx. 2.5″ center-to-center) and intake throat diameter (about 0.75″). Compare to your original.
• Gaskets included? Most come with a new gasket, but check—some do not. Order a separate gasket kit if yours is missing.
• Aftermarket, not OEM: This is a generic replacement. Expect minor fitment variations (e.g., slightly different throttle linkage or choke lever angle). May require slight bending or adjustment.

Key Things to Know

• Quality varies: At this price, you may get a functional carb, but don’t expect perfect casting or long-term durability. Many users report it works “out of the box” with minor adjustments.
• Installation difficulty: Moderate. You’ll need a socket set, screwdriver, and possibly a small file to deburr casting edges. Plan 30–60 minutes.
• Common gotchas:
  • The choke linkage may need bending to match your throttle cable.
  • The bowl nut can be overtightened—use a torque wrench (50–70 in-lbs) to avoid cracking.
  • Old gasket residue must be completely removed for a proper seal.
• Adjust required: Almost always needs the idle mixture screw (1.5–2 turns out) and idle speed screw set after installation.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you need a quick, cheap fix for a non-starting or rough-running Intek 190/205/206 engine and don’t mind spending an hour tuning. Skip if you want OEM fit-and-forget reliability or have a high-hour engine that may need a full rebuild anyway.
