Free - Engine Air Filter

I just came across a 'new' engine air filter (sitting in my garage for 10+ yrs).

auto filter media has changed dramatically in the last ten years therefore I would suggest you adapt the filter to your lawn mower

As has motor oil, gear oil, transmission fluid, coolant, sparks plugs, etc.. However this is a 10+ year old filter for a 25+ year old car. Probably as good or better than the filter the engineers designed for the vehicle originally.

Why do you hate the earth?!?! EVERY decent human know that an educated person uses a brand new electric (Chinese made) lawn mower that weighs 260lbs and takes two days to mow the +/- 1 acre lawn (due to charge time). The thought of needing a filter on a mower makes baby dolphins cry....


To that...changes in the past ten years? I dunno. Assuming it is in good shape I would use it. Heck, over 25 years ago we had Wix, K&N (oiled) and on and on and on. Not so sure that improvements are there in the past 10....
