This is a high-quality manufacturer-sourced part which is made for use with Kohler engines commonly installed on lawn and garden equipment. It helps to distribute the pressure evenly and provide a tight seal for the gear cover. Over time it may become brittle and begin to crack eventually requiring a replacement. For the exact location and the correct installation please refer to the appropriate diagrams of your model. This high-quality part is made of durable rubber material and is sold individually. You will need a wrench set to take the engine apart and perform the repair.
