Hitachi 6696549 T/CG24EASPSL Air Cleaner Assembly

I purchased the Air Cleaner Assembly, which was in stock, for the plastic bulb pump which had broken on my original leaf blower. My old blower is now back working like new.

I have a Tanaka leaf blower. I believe this is the industrial version of the Hitachi one. I was on the front line all day blowing leaves all over the property, when I realized that the lid to my air cleaner and the air filter element were gone....I was so sad, cuz i love my Tanaka and she always starts on the first pull...As a natural reaction I head over to the Hitachi/Tanaka people and start looking around, and they want twice what I paid for this get up for just the lid and little foam element. I looked all over the place and then, Duh, I said, let me look on Amazon. I found this entire air cleaner assembly complete with primer bulb and air filter. Everything you need. I read all these reviews elsewhere about how you need the bulb eventhough you dont think you do. So I bought it. It came quickly. Without watching any Youtube videos or anything, it was literally 2 screws. Oh yeah, I had to get out some needle nosed pliers to gently persuade the fuel lines off. All in all, off and back on in less than 5 minutes, no exaggerating at all. Primed her up and turned her on. 1st pull every time. I went ahead and ordered a 2nd one at this price, just to be ready for the next front yard casualty. P.S. The lid has a much more positive lock upon shutting than the original equipment, so I may never need the 2nd one!

The fit was perfect, but the hoses kept coming off. I think it is the fault of the hoses, rather than this filter and primer; perhaps they swelled over the years. Be aware when you buy new hoses, that the lengths are not very long, so go to the parts catalog and look them up before you order.

The cap on the air cleaner went missing and I ordered an entire replacement unit from Amazon. The factory part works and Im very happy with it. Its cheap enough that it could be replaced when the unit needs a tune up (since it has a fuel bulb built in). I was disappointed with how the price fluctuated while it was in my cart and I had to play wack a mole with the buy button, to ensure I bought it at a reasonable price.

A high quality OEM part. Fair price too.

Perfect replacement for aging weed wicker. Great purchase!

FANTASTIC! So easy to install! Took maybe 10 minutes. My leaf blower is back!!! Thank you!

Works like a champ and easy to install.

I put it on and the blower worked great

Fits and looks just like the original
