It was loose in the tank.   My co-worker just told me that the foam block goes under the funnel looking part in the gas cap.  No need for a new cap.  Just pull off the funnel under the cap, install foam and put the funnel back on over it.  I have not tried it yet but If it stays together I will be all set. 

Thanks

No kids at home now.  Would it possibly go under that funnel looking thing inside the fuel cap?  I forgot to mention that it is made of sponge foam.

I have a Toro 828lxe with a tecumseh engine.   Today when I was fueling it up I noticed a square foam block about 1" square,  with a hole through the center, laying in the fuel tank.  Where did this come from? 

While the tractor is off, have someone step on the reverse pedal.  Follow the link from the pedal to the rear of the tractor behind the hitch plate and you will see it operate a switch back there when the reverse pedal is depressed.  You will have to adjust the link back there so it wont touch the switch.   If you cant figure out how to do it then you can pull the wire plug off the switch and put a heavy jumper wire across the the plug you pull off.

I have a link tho the thread that discussed it a while back.  Could have sworn that there was a pic also but didn't see it.
