Hi there folks,
I have a Model 303447 Type 0131-01 3898
Serial 90022211

There are two Cyl Head bolts that require special sealing Washers.
The Pats book states the are Part Number 805193

These are not manufactured anymore from B&S.
Does anyone whether there is an alternate ?

They are mighty hard to find.
 
Shoot, Parts Tree and another Online Provider cancelled my orders.
Seems like these washers are really out of stock everywhere.

I'll need to see if I can replace the rubber gasket part with a Nitrile washer...

I assume this is where Oil can escape out and result in a little burning oil ?
 
Oh well I tried. It seems everyone is on the extra lazy side lately. Apparently Partstree is now taking up Searspartsdirect habits.

The prices that are being sent out are also screwed so badly that the included bar codes are unused now. It a real pain when you switch over to using them and then your distributors don't care to get things right.
 
Say folks, quick question,
Is the oil moved around via splashing in these Engines or do they actually develop Oil Pressure ??

Just wondering what I need to deal with as far as sealing goes.
