MaxPower 334422 Air Filter for MTD, Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt Mowers Replaces OEM #951-14628, 751-14628, Multi

What It Is

The MaxPower 334422 is an aftermarket air filter designed to replace OEM #951-14628 and #751-14628 on MTD, Cub Cadet, and Troy-Bilt walk-behind mowers, tractors, and zero-turn riders. It fits engines like Briggs & Stratton, Kohler, and Kawasaki that use this specific rectangular foam-and-paper element.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, check these three things:

• OEM Part Numbers: Confirm your mower uses 951-14628 or 751-14628. Cross-reference with your owner’s manual or existing filter.
• Engine Brand: This filter fits many engines, but not all. Verify your engine model (e.g., Briggs 500E/550E/625E, Kohler 7000/8000, Kawasaki FS/FR/FX series) against MaxPower’s online fitment list.
• Physical Size: The filter is roughly 7.5" x 3.5" x 1.5". Measure your old filter to ensure the mounting holes and overall shape match. It won’t fit all MTD/Cub Cadet models—check deck or model number on the mower’s sticker.

Key Things to Know

• Quality vs OEM: This is a budget-friendly aftermarket filter. It works well for most users, but the foam pre-filter may be slightly less dense than OEM. Replace it every season or after heavy dust use.
• Installation: Tool-free—just remove the cover, swap the old filter, and reattach. Make sure the filter seats fully to avoid air leaks.
• Common Gotcha: Some users report a slightly loose fit in certain housings. If the filter rattles, add a thin foam strip or replace the housing gasket. Also, don’t oil the foam part—it’s dry-type.
• Value: At ~$11.50, it’s often 40-60% cheaper than OEM. For occasional mowing, it’s a solid money saver.

Should You Buy It

If you own a compatible MTD/Cub Cadet/Troy-Bilt mower and want a reliable, low-cost air filter for routine maintenance, this is a good pick. Skip it if you need the exact OEM foam density for heavy commercial use—stick with the genuine part then. For most homeowners, it’s a no-brainer.
