Husqvarna 545081848 Replacement: Compare 3 Options

How to find your model number

Check your model number before you buy a replacement for the 545081848. On a string trimmer or edger the model number is usually on a label on the engine or motor housing, sometimes on the shaft.

Spring maintenance

Fuel left in the engine over winter can gum up the carburetor. Start the season with fresh fuel; if the engine still surges or will not idle, the carburetor may need cleaning or replacing.
