[AT] [External] Re: Air filter lookup

[Gunnells, Brad R]

One little tip on the Wix site (I presume on Baldwin as well). Look up a Kohler or B&S as some have suggested and see what number is returned. If you click on that it will give you full dimensions of the product. You might get lucky and it's actually a very common filter. Or maybe that filter could be easily adapted to your application.

Those sites both have the same problem as NAPA give them the application and they have the filter. But I don't have anything in their system, just a used filter.

Agreed with taking filter in to a couple of stores, and I might add reluctantly given some of the dialogue, a Deere dealership that handles riding mowers.  I was helping a neighbor with his Deere riding mower a week or so ago..... he bought a "kit" with air, oil, spark plug... etc., for his mower.... air filter was different.  He went to Deere dealership where he bought mower, and parts person said that there were four different air filters for that model of mower, .... with one being specific for California.  Anyway, to get back to the point..... the one on his Briggs Stratton engine was cylindrical... I might have guessed maybe 5 inches....??? in diameter, maybe 7 inches long, and fit on a pipe somewhere in the 1.25 to 1.5 range.  I suspect the inner diameter if your fits on a pipe is the key measurement if that is how yours attaches.

Kohler had a lot of stuff around that size--especially in older Cub
Cadets and Deere lawn mowers. Got a tractor Supply near you? The ones
here have a great selection of genuine Kohler and Briggs parts.

There are no numbers on it, and the NAPA guys can't find anything in their books. Of course everything is make year model there and they don't deal with much small engine stuff anyway. Does anyone have any tricks to find a filter than is 6 inches in diameter and 1.75 thick? I'm sure it was a common part at the local hardware store back when the tractor was made, but now I'm stuck trying to find a replacement with no idea where to look up filters by size.
