Important Notes
- Verify compatibility with your specific generator model, manufacturing number, engine configuration, and production revision before ordering.

- Factory documentation specifies one DP241801 Intake Valve Spring Seat per confirmed RY903600 engine assembly.
- Do not confuse DP241801 Intake Valve Spring Seat with DP241802 Exhaust Valve Spring Seat. These are separate components for the intake and exhaust sides of the valve train.
