Mtd Engine Parts

This is an oil filter designed to fit a variety of small, gasoline-powered motors used primarily on lawn equipment. This genuine OEM replacement filter removes contaminants that otherwise would wear down the internal working parts of the engine. While the filter works very well, it should be replaced annually as a part of regular maintenance. Depending on use, the filter may need to be replaced more often. When replacing the oil filter, the crankcase oil must be drained and safely discarded as well. To remove oil from the gasoline engine, start the engine and let it run for a couple of minutes. This circulates the oil and heats the internal engine parts so oil is better able to drain. Next, remove the drain plug located on the bottom of the oil pan and collect the oil. Remember to dispose of the oil safely where it cannot contaminate streams or aquifers. Once the oil has been removed, remove the old filter and discard it properly. The new filter should only be hand-tightened in place as using a wrench may cause the filter gasket to seal to the engine block. This filter will fit Yard Machine mower engines and MTD equipment.

This air filter consists of an internal plastic frame with a foam mesh cover that captures dust and dirt. The outer, washable pad covers an accordion-style inner filter that removes even finer particles. An air filter keeps particles in the air from getting sucked into the motor, where friction will cause wear and tear to the engine. However, a filter has a limited life cycle. Eventually, it gets clogged up, which leads to limited airflow and decreased efficiency. If the engine is bogging down when it is revved up, a clogged air filter might be to blame. Simply install a new air filter and see if the motor performance improves. It is recommended to preemptively replace the air filter every spring so a clogged filter never puts a halt to a job in progress. This is an OEM part, sourced directly from MTD, and it is sold individually. In addition to MTD lawn equipment, it has also been used by other manufacturers, including Craftsman, Yard Machine, and Yard-Man.

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.
