I have a Tecumseh engine 13.5 h.p. OV358EA, engine. I need to know the size of the bolts that connect to the dip stick 1?. 2 one is at the back where the spark plug is at? and the 3 one is on the other side from the dip stick? when the shroud is all connected to the baffle I believe it should be tight. its loose and I am afraid that the baffle will hit the electric starter if any one can show me the right Diagram for this engine it would be of great help. if you need pictures, I think I can take some, let me know what info you will need.

Star tech that baffle plate isn't like the one I have. When I put the shroud over the plate to tighten it down. it has the 2 outer bolts but it moves a little bit. but there are none on the bottom of the plate. to hold it in place. model OV358EA.Would the shroud and the baffle interlock with each other to make it tight I am worried it will go into the electric starter?
