I have an older (80s?) lawnboy mower. The air filter cover is
constantly coming off and the filter gets dragged out.

Is there a source for cheap "doors"/covers for it?
Is there a replacement air filter assembly that won't disassemble
under evergreens?




The new filter cover will have a hole in it that a clevis pin goes
through to keep low branches from removing it. You should go to a
Lawnboy dealer and buy the oem cover and pin. Cheap aftermarket covers
will not solve your problem.

This is going to fit on a 20 - 25 year-old mower? I just went to a Weed
Eater
dealer for a part for a 15 year old machine, and they just snickered.


Get the model number and look here

to see if they show a clip to hold the cover on.
The model number is usually on the mower deck, not on the engine. If
they don't have a parts list there, post the model number here. I should
be able to find what you need.
