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.

Carburetor gaskets ensure that the space between the carburetor itself and the insulator is properly sealed. This prevents air from seeping into the engine. As time passes, gaskets begin to become worn and crack, which can lead to small air leaks. If the gasket deterioration becomes severe the leaks will worsen. An air leak on an engine can cause vibrations and misfires. Gaskets should be regularly replaced to prevent engine trouble. This carburetor gasket is a genuine OEM part that has been sourced directly from the manufacturer. This carburetor gasket is manufactured from a top-quality composite material. This replacement gasket fits a number of different models of Troy-Bilt and Craftsman lawn and garden equipment. Please note these gaskets are sold individually.
