Additional Information
The snowblower engine fuel tank shroud, part number 951-11184, installs over the fuel tank to shield it from debris while supporting proper airflow around the engine area. It also helps keep surrounding components protected during normal operation.
You might notice the fuel tank exposed, excessive vibration around the tank area, or rattling noises during use. Cracks, broken mounting points, or a shroud that will not sit flush can also allow debris to contact the fuel tank or nearby components.
Disconnect the spark plug wire before beginning the repair. The shroud mounts near the fuel tank and metal brackets, so work gloves can help protect your hands during removal and installation. Position the shroud correctly and secure all fasteners evenly before reconnecting the spark plug wire.
