Keep your burner running smoothly with the Wayne 13279 motor coupling, designed for Model E burner systems. This coupling connects the motor to the fuel pump, transferring power for proper burner operation.

If your burner motor is running but the pump isn’t, or you’re experiencing intermittent operation, a worn or broken coupling is often the issue. This is a common wear item that can fail over time.

What it does:

Replacing it is a quick, inexpensive fix that can get your burner back up and running fast.
