Product Description

The BRIGGS STRATTON 691746 is a camshaft plug designed for use in small engines manufactured by Briggs Stratton. This plug seals the camshaft bore in the engine block, preventing oil leakage and maintaining proper lubrication pressure within the engine. It is an OEM replacement part intended for use by small engine technicians and outdoor power equipment service professionals performing engine teardown, rebuild, or oil leak correction.

This camshaft plug is typically installed during engine rebuilds, crankcase repairs, or when an existing plug has become damaged, corroded, or lost its seal. It is suited for residential and light commercial outdoor power equipment applications where Briggs Stratton small engines are used, including lawn mowers, garden tractors, generators, and similar equipment. Installation is performed during engine disassembly when access to the camshaft bore is available.
