Key Features
- Genuine OEM Fuel System Accuracy — engineered to the exact buoyancy and dimensional tolerances required for correct carburetor fuel level regulation on the BW 900-50
- Direct OEM Replacement — replaces the original Float with no rework or adaptation, restoring the carburetor bowl assembly to its designed operating state
- Confirmed Fitment — verified for the Bomag BW 900-50 walk-behind light roller; reference part number 05050450 when ordering to ensure compatibility
- Stable Fuel Delivery — a correctly functioning float maintains the proper fuel level in the carburetor bowl, ensuring consistent engine starts and smooth low-speed operation under compaction loads
- Fuel System Integrity — a worn or damaged float can cause flooding, fuel overflow, or a lean-running condition; replacing it promptly protects the engine and prevents unnecessary fuel waste
The float is a buoyancy component inside the carburetor bowl that regulates the flow of fuel into the carburetor. As fuel fills the bowl, the float rises and triggers the needle valve to shut off the incoming fuel supply, maintaining the correct fuel level for proper air-fuel mixture. When a float becomes waterlogged, cracked, or bent out of position, it loses the ability to regulate fuel flow accurately — leading to flooding, hard starting, excessive fuel consumption, or an engine that runs poorly under load.
