Description
Overview:
The filter housing is a genuine Stihl component for MS 170 and MS 180 petrol chainsaws, supplied under OEM reference 1130 140 2812. It is moulded from hard‐wearing black polymer and forms the base of the airbox, locating and sealing the air filter element to the carburettor while guiding intake airflow and protecting the engine from debris.
