Old312-8 11 #1 Posted February 28, 2021 Coming here after being told to get rid of my 312-8. I plan to restore it to get top dollar, and I need to find an air filter and the cover. (Basically the whole assembly) The problem is some of the parts are discontinued, so I can’t find the whole assembly anywhere. Just wanting to see if anyone can find an assembly anywhere or if the M12 is becoming obsolete. (And no I am not running the engine open carb) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gregor 4,847 #2 Posted February 28, 2021 Do you have part numbers? Pics? Lincoln, at A to Z tractors is where I got mine for my K161. https://a-ztractor.com/ 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCM 10,142 #3 Posted February 28, 2021 @Old312-8 Although parts from the air horn gasket to the wingnut that holds the cover on are NLA ,Toro dealers still can get the OEM Kohler filter and foam pre-filter. FYI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,412 #5 Posted February 28, 2021 Seems Kohler now supply the filter element with the precleaner which generated a new part number but they are not linked so show up as not available. There are about 3 filters with the same ID and OD but all different heights. Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skrusins 128 #6 Posted March 1, 2021 I found mine at a lawn mower shop that has used equipment "like a junk yard". Mine were in Orville and Marshville, Ohio I'm sure you have some in your area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JayGee 1 #7 Posted March 16, 2021 I took my old filter in to the Tractor Supply nearest me and matched it up for size off of their rack and that worked fine on my 1995 Model 73362 312-8 WH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
