Additional information
This engine muffler assembly mounts to the engine exhaust port and directs exhaust gases safely away from the engine. Part number 951-11338 helps manage exhaust flow and reduces engine noise during normal operation.
If the muffler assembly cracks, rusts through, or comes loose, the engine may sound louder than normal or develop rattling noises. Exhaust leaks can also cause reduced performance or heat damage to nearby components.
Disconnect the spark plug wire before starting the repair to prevent accidental engine startup. Allow the engine and exhaust components to cool completely before handling the muffler, and handle the assembly carefully during removal and installation.
