These parts frequently wear out or need replacement to keep your Craftsman lawn tractor or riding mower in top condition.
The air filter keeps dirt, grass clippings and other debris from entering the engine. A clogged or dirty air filter reduces airflow, which can lower engine performance and increase fuel consumption. Replacing it regularly helps maintain smooth engine operation.
The alternator creates power while the engine runs. It generates electricity to recharge the battery and supply current to the mower’s electrical system. If the battery won't hold a charge or accessories stop working, the alternator may be the problem.
The flywheel key is a small metal tab that aligns the flywheel with the crankshaft. It’s designed to shear if the mower blade strikes a solid object, protecting the crankshaft from damage. A sheared key can cause ignition timing problems, making the engine hard to start or run rough.
The blade belt transfers power from the engine pulley to the mower blades. A worn or stretched belt can slip or break, causing the blades to stop spinning. Use our mower parts lookup tool to find the correct blade belt for your Craftsman model.
The spark plug ignites the air-fuel mixture in the engine’s combustion chamber. A fouled or damaged plug can cause hard starts, misfires and power loss. Replacing the spark plug is a quick way to restore performance and fuel efficiency.
