STIHL HD2 Air Filter Retrofit Older BG86C

[pgerlach]

I’d like to get opinions on Stihl’s HD2 pleated cleanable air filter vs the older model flat air filter. I recently bought an older BG86C handheld blower and am considering altering it to take the HD2 air filter.

Thanks in advance for your guidance.

Is it the 2 piece one that you are talking about? Or have they come out with a newer style. My parts lists are @ 11 years old.

The two piece is the older flat filter I referred to that I want to swop out for the new pleated cleanable filter called the HD2.
