Additional information
This engine dipstick tube clamp mounts around the dipstick tube and secures it to the engine block. Part number 951-11320 helps keep the tube stable so oil level readings remain accurate and the tube does not vibrate loose during operation.
If the clamp breaks, loosens, or goes missing, the dipstick tube can shift out of position. This may lead to oil leaks, inaccurate oil level readings, or visible movement of the tube while the engine is running.
Disconnect the spark plug wire before starting the repair to prevent accidental engine startup. Position the clamp carefully and tighten it securely without overtightening, which could damage the tube.
Lawn & garden equipment engine dipstick tube clamp 951-11320 replaces part numbers 751-11185, 951-11185, 751-11320.
