Murray Fuel Caps
Check your existing cap against the machine model number or the part number stamped on the original to make sure you order the correct Murray fuel cap. At Garden Tractor Spares, you can match genuine and OEM replacements to fit your tractor properly. A new cap is often needed if the old one has gone missing or the seal has cracked, and some caps also vent the tank, so blockage can affect fuel flow.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I match a fuel cap to my tank?
Use the tank and cap arrangement already fitted to your machine as your guide when choosing a replacement. If the original cap is missing, compare carefully with the tank opening so you order a cap intended for that setup.
Why does it keep running briefly then stop?
That pattern often points to the vent in the fuel cap not breathing properly. A blocked vent can create a vacuum in the tank and starve the engine, so it runs, dies, then does the same again.
When is a new fuel cap needed?
The most common reasons are a lost cap or a seal that has split. Replacing it restores the proper seal while allowing the vent to do its job.
