I'm having a problem locating a air filter for a Homelite Chainsaw. Anyone have one they would part with or know of another avenue to purchase one ? I've contacted Homelite via phone and struck out.

If all else fails... improvise...I've made filters from MEDIUM density foam rubber (found often in packaging materials) OR even a womans KOTEX pad ... don't laugh .... it works quite well and is cheap ...comparitively speaking .. :thumbsup:

Yes, improvising has crossed my mind and I even have a pair of socks worn out I could cut the top off to use.

I don't even have the old one for an example. This saw is about 35 years old with very few hours so I was either sold a saw without a filter or old age deteriorated the original filter and that lil ole piston swallowed it bit by bit as it fell apart.
