Additional Information
The Briggs & Stratton Engine Air Filter (part number 593260) helps protect the engine by filtering dust and debris from the air before it reaches the carburetor. This part replaces part numbers 798452 and BS-593260 and fits select Briggs & Stratton engine models.
If your engine starts running rough or loses power under load, a clogged air filter may be the cause. Replacing it can restore smooth performance and prevent dirt from entering the engine.
To replace the air filter, let the engine cool completely. Remove the cover, take out the old filter, clean the surrounding housing, and install the new filter. No tools are required. Wear gloves to protect your hands during the process.
Regular filter maintenance supports better airflow, improves fuel efficiency, and helps your equipment run more reliably throughout the season.
