I brought home a friend's sp toro recycler to replace belt. I can't ask him any questions right as he was headed for a walking tour of southern Italy. I figured I'd service it too. Right now it has a thick foam air filter in it.The air filter cover is the one button style. I've looked at several places for ipl and they consistently show a paper filter which my supplier has. They show a picture number for a pre cleaner but it's not shown in the parts number list and my supplier shows no pre cleaner. Has anyone seen just a foam filter in these models or should I conclude that someone thought it was a good idea to put one in his engine.
I'd also like to add a fuel shutoff. The fuel line is the original as it has the original date stamped on it. I'm wondering what the ID would be. The line seems to narrow from carb to tank and then expands a bunch to go on tank output nipple.
