Mtd Pro Engine Cap, Lid & Cover

A fuel cap assembly is a component often seen on lawnmowers and other lawn and garden equipment. It is made of durable black plastic and is used to ensure that fuel doesn’t spill out of the fuel tank. Over time, fuel cap assemblies can begin to wear out and cause problems. Sometimes this results in a cap that doesn’t tighten all the way or there may be a fuel smell when using a lawnmower or snowblower. If fuel is leaking, the cap doesn’t fit right, or the cap seems damaged, it’s best to replace it with a new component. This is a simple process that involves removing the original fuel cap assembly and fitting the new assembly to the lawn machine. This fuel cap assembly is a genuine OEM component that comes directly from the manufacturer. It is an individual part that is compatible with MTD, Murray, Cub Cadet, Bolens, Yard-Man, and Yard Machines lawnmowers, snowblowers, chipper shredders, and tillers. No tools are required to replace this component.

This is a genuine MTD fuel cap replacement made for use on select snowblowers. It features a molded gasket for secure sealing and less risk of losing parts. The fuel cap is responsible for securing the fuel in the fuel tank during operation so that it doesn't spill out. There is an air hole in the cap to prevent pressurization of the fuel, ensuring safe operation at all times. This cap is made of plastic and it can become cracked or stripped with regular use. If it is damaged, the fuel will not be secure and the machine will not be safe to use. That will require an immediate replacement. This OEM fuel cap is made to exact standards by MTD and is compatible with several models of snow blowers and snow throwers. It is also capable of fitting select models from Yard Machines, Troy-Bilt, Cub Cadet, Yard-Man, and Husky. It features an easy plastic grip and a seal to prevent spillage. It can be installed with no tools and is sold as an individual unit. It is easy to screw the new cap into place, but be sure to thread the screw properly to prevent accidental stripping or misthreading that can cause the cap to get stuck.
