Description
Overview:
The Filter Housing for Stihl chainsaws is a genuine Stihl spare designed to keep the air intake system sealed and correctly routed for reliable engine performance. Made from tough, fuel- and oil-resistant plastic, it supports the air filter and choke/air channels while providing a stable mounting point in the body of the saw. By helping to deliver clean air to the carburettor, it reduces wear and supports consistent starting and cutting power. This unit is a direct replacement for OEM No. 1130 140 2803 and is engineered to fit popular saws such as the MS 170 and MS 180. It is suitable for routine maintenance or to replace cracked or worn housings to restore proper airflow and filtration.
Key Features:
- Genuine Stihl part for assured fit, function, and compatibility
- Robust moulded plastic construction for long service life under regular use
- Direct replacement for OEM No. 1130 140 2803 to simplify sourcing and fitting
- Helps maintain a sealed intake path for cleaner air and better engine protection
- Designed for quick installation with accurate alignment to mating components
- Resistant to fuel, oil, vibration, and typical jobsite conditions
- Supports consistent starting, idle, and throttle response by stabilising the intake system
- Suitable for preventative maintenance to avoid unfiltered air entering the engine
Typical Applications:
Used during servicing or repair of Stihl chainsaws to replace a damaged, warped, or contaminated housing. Ideal when restoring airflow after impact damage, heavy use, or age-related wear. Helps keep debris out of the intake while cutting firewood, pruning, landscaping, or on-site construction tasks where dust and chips are present.
