Description

This is a sponge filter that is used in several types of lawn and garden equipment. It helps remove dirt, dust, and other debris before it can reach the engine. If the sponge filter is dirty, damaged, or otherwise not working correctly, debris can end up clogging the carburetor, which will weaken performance or prevent it from starting completely. If the dust and dirt reach the engine, serious engine damage can occur.Inspecting the sponge filter on a regular basis is important to ensure it's working well. It also needs to be replaced at least annually, and possibly more often depending on wear and tear. Replacing the air filter is simple. Take off the lid on the filter and then remove it from the machine. Replace it with the new sponge filter and replace the lid.This is a genuine OEM replacement part that is directly sourced from the manufacturer. It is sold as an individual part. The sponge filter is compatible with lawnmowers, lawn tractors, and wood chippers manufactured by Craftsman, Huskee, Cub Cadet, MTD, and Yard Machines.
