The Murray M22450 has a simple service universe: carburetor, blade, air filter, spark plug, and engine oil are the primary maintenance items. Every repair call on the M22450 traces to either the engine or the cutting system.

Most Replaced Parts on the Murray M22450
Carburetor for the Murray M22450
Ethanol varnish deposits in the idle jet and main emulsion tube are the leading cause of hard starting and rough running after winter storage. Cleaning resolves most carburetor problems; a carburetor with a damaged needle valve seat requires replacement.
Murray M22450 Cutting Blade
The 22-inch cutting blade should be sharpened or replaced each season. A dull blade tears grass rather than cutting it. A bent or severely nicked blade creates vibration that stresses the crankshaft and should be replaced rather than sharpened.
Air Filter for the Murray M22450
Replace at the start of each mowing season or every 25 hours of operation. A clogged air filter causes the engine to run rich, lose power, and overheat during extended mowing.
Spark Plug for the Murray M22450
Annual spark plug replacement maintains reliable starting and clean combustion. Heavy black deposits on a removed plug indicate a rich mixture from a dirty air filter or gummed carburetor.

Murray M22450 Push Mower Parts FAQ
What engine does the Murray M22450 use?
The Murray M22450 uses a Briggs and Stratton single-cylinder engine. The exact engine model and type code are stamped on the crankcase. Reference both the mower model M22450 and the engine type code when ordering carburetor components.
How often should I change the oil on a Murray M22450?
Briggs and Stratton recommends changing the oil after the first five hours of operation on a new or rebuilt engine, then every 50 hours or once per season thereafter. SAE 30 motor oil is specified for temperatures above 40 degrees Fahrenheit.
My Murray M22450 starts but runs rough. What should I check?
Rough running is almost always caused by a carburetor with varnish deposits in the idle circuit from stale ethanol-blend fuel. Clean the carburetor pilot jet and main emulsion tube. Also inspect the air filter and spark plug, which can independently cause rough running.
