Does anyone know about getting a longer attachment for putting oil into the motor. If you know what I mean there is a little oil fill plug with a little dipstick in front of the motor. Its quite a pain adding oil to the motor. In my old owners manuel it shows an attachment in one of the pictures but have no idea where I can get one. If any one knows about this or what part number is it, I would really be thankful.

Thanks

Get yourself  a medium size funnel with a narrow tip.  Find a piece of clear plastic hose that will fit over the tip of the funnel.  You might have to heat the hose to get it to fit over the tip snugly.    Make sure the outside diameter of the hose will fit inside the filler hole.  Probably 5/8" hose will be the largest that will fit.   Cut hose to suitable length.  Problem solved. 

Hello

Thank you that sounds like a great idea!

Thanks again

I learned that from my mother.  That's how she made me eat my peas..........

If a simple funnel is not suuficient, then a

transmission fluid  filler product would also do it.

I have the same motor on my snow thrower. I a have a parts list for this motor and the extended dip stick and tube and oring ar as follows.Oil fill tube part #33893A  Dip stick #34011A (includes o ring) or the better option is the Fill tube&Dipstick Assembly, Part #35836     these are tecumseh numbers

Item# TC-35836 Tecumseh/Peerless Part 35836 TUBE & GAUGE   Quantity:

Price: $10.65

At M&D. Plus shipping . Shipping is 7.95.

good time to get belts, shear bolts, etc or anything else to "amortize" the shipping sting.

a transmission funnel works real good
