Long time forum viewer but first time posting. I get alot of helpful information from this forum.
I recently rebiult a Stihl 024 super as a 026 and traded to a guy for a Stihl 044. The saw runs but needs a tune up. The air filter was in terrible shape and needs replaced. I ordered a cheap kit offline that came with a carb, filter, plugs, ect. The air filter was slightly larger on the cover side and it wouldnt fit into the groove on the cover so I couldn't tighten the cover down. I decided to order a kit off ebay that came with a filter and all the covers for an 044 or ms440. The filter that they sent is the same as the other I received and does not fit in the grooves on the cover they sent. The cover they sent is the same one I have on the saw. The first picture is the new one setting in the cover and the last is the old one setting in the cover. Im trying to figure out what filter I need as I dont think they make the one that was in it anymore. Any help is appreciated.
