Briggs Oil leak

Recommended Posts

Have a 11 HP B&S on my Simplicity 4211H. Just noticed that a slow drip of oil seems to be comming from the area where the Oil filler tube goes into the engine. Any body knows what the part # for the "O" ring or gasket at the base of the tube, or do I have a little too much oil in it. Thanks Mike

You should be able to go to http://www.briggsandstratton.com/ and download a parts manual that should have the part number of the o-ring....You will need your model and type numbers off the shroud...

Mike, The part at the bottom of the dipstick tube is not just an oring. It is a rubber seal that threads into the block. They do dry out after a while. The part number is 281370S and can be had at my new web site. About 2 1/2 bucks.

Take a good look at the oil pan bolts for loosness.It is very common for the bolts to come loose over a period of time.Which in case they have come loose,you will need to put a new pan gasket on.

John, If you go to the other part of the club you can down load the manual and parts manual for the 4211H. Great help for me. Mike

just a thought, may want to check the crankcase vent. if it is clogged oil will find a way out under pressure. you mat need a seal but clean out the pcv system and save future problems. just a thought, badcars
