The Wacker Neuson Jet #45, Pilot is a genuine OEM carburetor pilot jet designed for BFS floor saws, WB16 Power Buggy models, and the GS5.5A portable generator. As a direct-from-manufacturer component, this jet is produced to the exact size and flow specification of the original part, ensuring the carburetor meters fuel correctly at idle and low throttle. It fits an extensive range of BFS 1318, BFS 1345, and BFS 1350 floor saw configurations, as well as WB16A, WB16AF, WB16AS, WB16AFS, WB16AD, WB16ADF, WB16ADS, and WB16ADFS Power Buggy variants. When the pilot jet is worn, clogged, or damaged, engines typically run rough at idle, stumble on acceleration, or fail to start — replacing it with part number restores proper fuel delivery and smooth engine response.
Key Features
- Calibrated Fuel Metering: — Sized at #45, this pilot jet delivers the correct fuel-to-air ratio at idle, preventing lean stumble or rich flooding in the low-speed circuit.
- Genuine OEM Part: — Manufactured by Wacker Neuson to the original design specification, so orifice sizing, thread pitch, and material match the carburetor it seats in exactly.
- Broad Fitment Across Three Equipment Families: — Verified for BFS 1318, BFS 1345, and BFS 1350 floor saws, WB16-series Power Buggies, and the GS5.5A generator — one part number covering a wide service range.
- Restores Clean Idle and Throttle Response: — A correctly sized pilot jet keeps the engine stable at low RPM and responsive when opening the throttle, critical for floor saw operator control and consistent cut depth.
- Fuel System Integrity: — Replacing a damaged or partially blocked pilot jet eliminates a common source of hard starting and erratic idling, helping maintain safe, controlled engine operation on cut-off and floor saw applications.
The pilot jet is a small-diameter metered orifice inside the carburetor that controls how much fuel enters the engine during idle and low-speed operation. Unlike the main jet, which governs fuel flow at full throttle, the pilot jet handles the low-speed circuit — making it responsible for smooth starts, stable idle, and clean throttle pickup. Because the orifice is very small, it is highly susceptible to blockage from varnish deposits left by stale fuel or debris in the fuel system. A blocked or worn pilot jet causes hard starting, rough idling, and hesitation, and simply cleaning the carburetor body will not restore correct function if the jet itself is damaged or out of specification — only installing a correctly sized replacement like part number 5000082855 will.
