698083 697153 Air Filter Replacement for BS 795115 697014 697776 Compatible with John Deere L100 LA105 LA110 LA115 Z225 GY20573 Fits Craftsman LT1000 LT2000 14-17.5HP Intek Lawn Mower Engine

What It Is

This aftermarket air filter replaces OEM models 698083, 697153, 795115, 697014, and 697776. It’s designed for Briggs & Stratton Intek single-cylinder engines (14–17.5 HP) found in John Deere L100 series, Craftsman LT1000/LT2000, and Z225 zero-turn mowers.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, check your engine’s model number (stamped on the valve cover or shroud). This filter fits Briggs & Stratton Intek engines with a rectangular, pleated paper element—not round or foam types. Measure your current filter: it should be roughly 5.5 x 3.75 x 1.5 inches. It won’t fit Kohler, Kawasaki, or Honda engines. Confirm your mower’s deck size (42–54 inches typical) doesn’t affect filter housing clearance—some Z225 models may require removing a bracket.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: This is an aftermarket part, not OEM. It matches OEM dimensions and filtration, but may have slightly thinner foam pre-filter. Replace yearly or every 50 hours of use.
• Installation: Simple—remove the air filter cover (usually two clips or screws), swap the old filter, and reattach. No tools needed beyond a screwdriver for some covers.
• Common gotcha: Some Craftsman LT2000 models have a different filter housing shape; verify the rectangular shape matches. If your old filter has a metal mesh backing, this one is all-paper—still compatible.
• Warranty: Using aftermarket filters won’t void your mower’s warranty, but keep your receipt in case of engine issues.

Should You Buy It

If you own a John Deere L100/LA series, Craftsman LT1000/LT2000, or Z225 with a 14–17.5 HP Briggs Intek engine, this is a solid, budget-friendly replacement for OEM filters. It’s easy to install and reliable for regular mowing. Skip it if you need OEM exactness for commercial use or have a different engine brand.
