Additional Information

Fuel tank cap 796577 replaces part numbers 397974, 494277, 692041, 692046, 699985, and 793606. It seals the fuel tank to help prevent leaks and block out debris that could compromise fuel quality. A tight-fitting cap keeps fuel where it belongs and helps maintain proper engine performance.

If you?re noticing gas smells, visible leaks, or issues starting the engine, a cracked or loose cap could be the cause. Replacing the fuel cap is a quick, tool-free fix that restores a secure seal and prevents evaporation and contamination.

No tools are required, but wearing work gloves is a good idea to improve grip and protect your hands. Be sure the cap is fastened tightly after every refueling to keep your equipment safe and running smoothly.

Don't have to worry about ordering wrong part
April 20, 2021|KenB, Rhode Island

I was thinking about buying a new lawnmower, but decided to just replace a few parts on my 2004 Craftsman mower to save the expense. I love that you can look up parts by lawnmower model and S/N. I got a new blade, gas cap, and air filter without worrying if they were going to fit. Parts arrived in 2 days as promised and all were a perfect fit.
