698083 Air Filter Tune up Kit Compatible with Briggs and Stratton 795115 697014 697153 794422 697634, for John Deere GY20573 M149171 LA115 LA105 LA110 LA100 L100 L105 L107 Lawn Mower, Craftsman LT2000

What It Is

This is an air filter tune-up kit for Briggs & Stratton single-cylinder OHV engines, commonly found on entry-level to mid-range riding mowers like John Deere 100-series and Craftsman LT2000. It includes a pre-filter, foam filter, and paper filter element to replace worn-out filtration in a single service.

Fitment & Compatibility

Check your engine model number – this kit is for Briggs & Stratton engines using air filter part numbers 795115, 697014, 697153, 794422, or 697634. It fits John Deere models LA115, LA105, LA110, LA100, L100, L105, L107, and Craftsman LT2000, but only if they have the compatible Briggs engine (not all variants). Measure your existing filter housing – the kit’s paper element is roughly 6.75” x 4.5” x 1.5”. If your housing is larger or has a different mounting hole pattern, it won’t fit. OEM vs aftermarket – this is an aftermarket kit, not genuine Briggs & Stratton. It matches OEM specs but may have slightly different foam density.

Key Things to Know

• Installation is straightforward – remove the old filter assembly, clean the housing, and insert the new pre-filter, foam, and paper element in that order. No tools required beyond a screwdriver for the housing cover.
• Check for oil contamination – if the old filter is wet with oil, you may have a crankcase breather issue; replacing the filter alone won’t fix that.
• Common gotcha – the foam pre-filter must be oiled lightly before installation (use engine oil, not spray). Skipping this reduces filtration efficiency.
• Quality note – some users report the foam is slightly thinner than OEM; it still works but may need replacement sooner (every 25 hours vs 50 hours).

Should You Buy It

If you own a compatible John Deere or Craftsman riding mower with a Briggs & Stratton engine and want a simple, low-cost tune-up, this kit is a solid choice. It’s not for heavy commercial use or engines with non-standard filter housings, but for home lawn care it delivers good value at $14.99.
