This filter is used for lawn and garden equipment. A dirty or clogged filter could cause the engine to run poorly.

This is a foam pre-filter that is used to help prevent dust, pollen, and other debris from clogging the air filters of small engines. One of the most common problems faced by small engines is an inadequate air supply caused by air filters that have become mired with airborne debris. Cleaning or replacing filters can become a tiresome and expensive proposition. If filters are not adequately cared for, they perform poorly, waste gasoline, pollute the air, and cause internal engine damage. A good way to help an air filter do its job is by adding a foam pre-filter in the air filter compartment. Pre-filters are exposed to all the things that clog air intakes, so periodically, they also must be replaced. Foam pre-filters are designed to fit snugly inside the housing of the air filter of virtually all small engine housings. To install a pre-filter, remove the air filter housing by taking off the one screw holding it in place. Remove the air filter from the housing and place the pre-filter inside against the exterior wall of the housing with the arrows pointing up. Reinstall the air filter. The paper of the filter should fit perfectly against the labeled side of the pre-filter. Now simply reattach the air filter housing.

This exhaust gasket is a genuine Midwest Engine replacement part for appliances that use small engines, such as chipper shredders, snowblowers, leaf blowers, and lawn mowers. The function of an exhaust gasket is to seal off the carburetor from the exhaust tube in order to protect the engine from the accumulation of dirt, debris, and gunk within the inner workings. The exhaust gasket may require replacement over time from general wear and tear. If the exhaust gasket is not sealing, allowing dirt and debris to accumulate within the carburetor and leaving the exhaust tube exposed, the part should be replaced immediately. Evidence of a damaged exhaust gasket could also manifest in the form of oil leakage, black smoke arising out of the exhaust tube, and unusually low pressure from the combustion when using the appliance. Any of these symptoms can be attributable to multiple factors, so one should assess if the exhaust gasket is responsible before ordering a replacement.This exhaust gasket is compatible with the following brands: Briggs and Stratton, Cub Cadet, Toro, and Simplicity.
