The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Idle Jet designed for a broad range of Wacker Neuson equipment, including PT2 and PDT series pumps, CT36-6 concrete trowels, GP2600 portable generators, VP and WP series single-direction vibratory plates, BPU reversible vibratory plates, and BFS floor saws. As a direct factory part, the is manufactured to the exact carburetor specifications required across all compatible models, ensuring the fuel-to-air calibration your engine depends on is never compromised. This genuine OEM component is sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, giving you confidence that it will seat, seal, and perform exactly as the original part did. Confirm your model number before ordering to take full advantage of this part's wide cross-model compatibility.
Key Features
- Carburetor-Matched Orifice Size — Manufactured to the exact bore diameter specified by Wacker Neuson, ensuring correct fuel metering at idle and preventing rich or lean running conditions.
- Genuine OEM Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson; carries the same part number (5000156537) and specification as the component installed at the factory.
- Wide Cross-Model Coverage — A single part fits VP and WP vibratory plate compactors, PT2 and PDT trash and diaphragm pumps, CT36-6 trowels, GP2600 generators, BFS floor saws, PG dewatering pumps, and BPU reversible plates.
- Stable Idle Restoration — A worn or clogged idle jet causes rough idling, stalling, and hard starts; replacing it restores smooth, consistent low-speed engine operation across all fitment models.
- Drop-In Carburetor Fit — Threaded to match the original carburetor body; installs without modification using standard hand tools during routine carburetor service.
- Fuel System Integrity — Using the correct OEM-spec jet prevents fuel delivery imbalances that can lead to engine flooding, excessive emissions, or accelerated wear on carburetor components.
The idle jet is a small, precision-threaded brass metering component located inside the carburetor. Its job is to control the exact amount of fuel delivered to the engine during low-speed and idle operation, working alongside the main jet to keep the fuel-to-air mixture within the narrow range the engine needs to run smoothly. When an idle jet becomes clogged with varnish or debris — common after extended storage or use of stale fuel — the engine will idle roughly, stall frequently, or refuse to start without excessive choke. Replacing the idle jet with a correctly sized OEM part like the Wacker Neuson 5000156537 is a straightforward carburetor service step that restores stable low-speed performance and avoids unnecessary teardown of other engine components.
