The Wacker Neuson Fuel Shutoff Valve M12 Threads is a genuine OEM component designed for VP and AP series single-direction vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly through Wacker Neuson's authorized parts program, this valve carries the exact fitment specifications required for correct installation on the machines it serves. Confirmed fitment includes the VP1035R, VP1135R, VP1135RW, VP1340R, VP1340RW, VP1550R, VP1550RW, VP2050R, VP2050RW, AP1550R, and VPR1330 vibratory plate compactors. Ordering by part number ensures you receive the correct valve for your machine.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Fuel Control Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact flow-rate and thread specification, ensuring the valve opens and closes at the correct fuel delivery points for your engine.
- M12 Thread Specification — The M12 threaded connection matches the factory fuel line fitting directly, allowing straightforward installation without adapters or modifications to the fuel system.
- Broad VP and AP Series Compatibility — Fits VP1035R, VP1135R, VP1135RW, VP1340R, VP1340RW, VP1550R, VP1550RW, VP2050R, VP2050RW, AP1550R, and VPR1330 plate compactors in a single part number.
- Prevents Uncontrolled Fuel Flow — A correctly functioning shutoff valve lets operators stop fuel delivery immediately during storage or service, preventing carburetor flooding and fuel leaks.
- Fuel System Safety — As a fuel system component, using the correct OEM-specified valve ensures the shutoff seals completely when closed, reducing the risk of fuel spillage during transport and maintenance.
The fuel shutoff valve controls the flow of fuel from the tank to the carburetor on small-engine powered equipment. When the valve is in the open position, fuel flows freely to support engine operation; switching it to the closed position cuts off fuel supply, which is essential during storage, transport, and routine service. A worn or failed shutoff valve can result in fuel leaking past the seat when closed, leading to carburetor flooding, hard starting, or fuel pooling — all of which interrupt work and create a fire hazard. Replacing a faulty valve with the correct part, such as the Wacker Neuson 5000078046, restores reliable fuel control and keeps the fuel system operating as intended.
