Description
Overview:
This genuine Kohler fuel tank cap (OEM No. 17 173 46-S) is a round, screw-on replacement designed to seal the fuel tank on small petrol engines. Made from a durable, fuel‐resistant polymer in a hard‐wearing black finish, it provides a tight, reliable seal to help prevent leaks and keep dust, dirt, and water out of the tank. The ridged outer grip allows easy tightening and removal by hand, even with gloves. Built to Kohler's specifications for correct fit and function, it is suitable for general-purpose engines used on construction, landscaping, and garden equipment. Ideal for maintaining performance and reliability on engines such as the SH255 and SH265, it restores proper tank closure and helps protect your fuel system from contamination.
