Description

This part is a genuine OEM replacement air filter for a variety of small engine lawn appliances. The carburetor mixes air and fuel for combustion but if the air is quite dusty, it can create a lot of problems throughout the engine. An air filter helps purify the air and remove and dust or dirt that gets kicked up during operation before it reaches the carburetor. Air filters are designed to collect dust and dirt particles so, over time, they eventually become clogged and stop working as effectively. Ideally, the air filter should be changed after each mowing season, but if not, some signs of a clogged filter include poor fuel economy, misfiring, and even sooty smoke. Replacing an air filter is one of the easiest routine maintenance jobs and will only take a matter of minutes. You may need a screwdriver to make the repair, but other than that, no additional hardware or tools are needed. This part is intended for use on Toro and Briggs & Stratton appliances. It comes sourced direct from the original manufacturer and ships individually.
