Kmart Tiller Filter

Installing a brand-new air filter keeps the engine in top running condition. When the machine is in operation, the vacuumed air goes through the air filter. Any dirt or dust is left in the filter media. Over time, the filter will become dirty and can no longer provide the same filtering efficiency as before. If left ignored, the tiny particles could clog the engine and the carburetor. You may experience misfires and no engine start-up. An air filter replacement is cheap and easy to do. Simply remove the air cleaner cover and take out the dirty filter. Insert the new filter into the housing. This replacement will take less than 5 minutes. A screwdriver will be needed. The MTD 951-10298 Air Cleaner Kit is a genuine air filter from MTD. Each kit comes with one paper filter and one foam filter. The foam filter can be cleaned with water and detergent. The paper filter, however, needs replacement at least once a year. This air filter kit is compatible with Cub Cadet, PowerMore, and Troy-Bilt. It can also work with other garden equipment like wheel string trimmers, chipper-shredder vacuums, and log splitters.

This replacement foam air filter is an authentic OEM replacement part for both lawn tillers and cultivators. For a combustion engine to run effectively, the carburetor must maintain a balance of fuel and air. Therefore, the engine takes in air from the outside and mixes it with fuel. However, if the air is dusty, it will clog the carburetor and cause the engine to seize up. To prevent this from happening, manufacturers add an air filter like this one to capture any dust or debris. When lawn appliances are in use, they often kick a lot of dirt into the air. This means that air filters get a lot of use every time an operator uses their appliance. Eventually, the filter will reach max capacity, and air will no longer pass through it. When this happens, the filter will need replacing. Changing out an air filter is a simple job and will only require a screwdriver at most. This part is made for Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, and MTD tillers and cultivators and is sourced from its original manufacturer. This part ships individually.
