Parts for Briggs & Stratton 42D707-2280-E3: Sump Parts

This replacement oil drain plug is a genuine OEM part for a lawn tractor or generator engine. The oil drain plug connects to the base of the oil tank and allows the appliance owner to drain used oil and replace it with new, clean oil. The oil drain plug is threaded to screw into the oil tank and prevent it from popping out of place while the appliance is in use. The most likely reason to replace an oil drain plug is if the old plug's threading has become stripped and no longer holds onto the oil tank. Alternatively, the plug is quite small and could easily be misplaced during an oil change. If lost, oil will leak from the engine, causing parts to overheat. Fortunately, replacing a lost or damaged oil drain plug is simple and only requires screwing a new plug into place. This replacement plug is a high-quality part that fits Craftsman and Murray products. It comes sourced from its original manufacturer and ships individually, without any additional hardware.

This is an authentic oil seal that is designed for use with select models of small engines. This specific oil seal is found on the power take-off side, or PTO side, of the engine. It provides a strong seal for the crankcase to prevent leaks and ensure optimal engine pressure. Over time this seal will wear out and may break, crack, or shrink. This will affect its ability to provide a proper seal. That can impact engine performance, cause fluid leaks, and more. Seals and gaskets are always considered a part of routine maintenance and they should be inspected during other repairs to ensure that everything is functioning properly. If not, this part can provide a replacement. This genuine OEM oil seal is manufactured by Briggs & Stratton and designed for use in more than 150 engines that are made by the brand. The seal can be used in equipment manufactured by Toro and Murray, as well, including generators, mowers, lawn tractors, snowblowers, and other small equipment. This oil seal is made of durable rubber material and sold as an individual unit. A screwdriver, pliers, and wrench set will be required to perform this replacement. Be sure to drain the oil and only work once the engine is cool.
