Full details
The Stiga 1185509190 fuel pipe is a genuine replacement component engineered for DIY enthusiasts and lawn care professionals looking to restore fuel delivery efficiency in compatible Stiga lawnmowers.

FAQs
Is this a genuine Stiga part?
Yes, the 1185509190 is a genuine Stiga replacement component.
Does this pipe include new clamps?
The pipe is typically supplied as the hose itself; it is recommended to reuse existing clamps if they are in good condition, or purchase new ones if they show signs of rust.
How do I know if my mower is compatible?
Verify your lawnmower model number against the Stiga compatibility list found in your owner's manual or on the manufacturer's website.
Can I use this for other brands?
It is strongly recommended to use this part only with compatible Stiga models to ensure proper fitment and safety.
What is the best way to remove a stuck fuel hose?
If the hose is stuck, use a pair of pliers to gently twist the end to break the seal before pulling it off; avoid using a knife near the plastic fittings.
Should I replace the fuel filter too?
Yes, it is highly recommended to replace the fuel filter whenever you replace the fuel pipe to ensure the entire fuel delivery path is clean.
Troubleshooting
Engine still will not start after replacement
Verify that the fuel line is not pinched and that the fuel shut-off valve (if equipped) is in the open position.
Fuel leaking at the connection point
Ensure the hose clamps are properly positioned and tightened, and check that the pipe is fully seated on the carburetor or tank nipple.
Engine surges while running
Check for air bubbles in the fuel line or potential obstructions in the fuel filter that may have been dislodged during the pipe replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, ensure the engine is cool and the work area is well-ventilated. Drain the fuel tank completely to minimize spills. 1. Access the fuel system by removing the necessary mower housing. 2. Carefully slide off the old clamps and remove the damaged pipe. 3. Route the new 1185509190 pipe along the same path as the original, ensuring it is not kinked or touching hot engine components. 4. Secure both ends with appropriate hose clamps. To maintain the life of the pipe, avoid using fuel containing high concentrations of ethanol if possible, as this can accelerate the aging of rubber components. Always inspect the hose during routine seasonal maintenance for signs of sweating or cracking.
