Murray String Trimmer 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.

As an air filter for trimmers used in the yard, this component helps keep the engine running smoothly when doing work. A clean air filter supplies the engine with clean air for the best performance. A visual inspection of the filter will offer insight into whether a replacement is needed. Maintaining the air filter will ensure it lasts longer and keeps debris from clogging the carburetor of the trimmer. If the original air filter has obstructions or large amounts of debris, it’s best to replace it. Tears in the filter also indicate a replacement is required to prevent any damage to the engine. This will entail removing the old air filter and placing a new one where it was. Opening the engine cover will give you access to the area where the air filter is housed. This replacement air filter is an OEM product that is directly from the manufacturer. It comes as an individual item and is designed for use with various Craftsman, Yard-Man, Cub Cadet, Bolens, Troy-Bilt, MTD, Murray, and Yard Machines trimmers. A screwdriver may be required to install the new air filter into the equipment.
