Briggs & Stratton Pre Cleaner - 272490S

Product Details & Features

Keep your Briggs & Stratton engine running cleaner and longer with this genuine pre-cleaner foam wrap designed to protect your air intake system. As the first line of defence against airborne dust and debris, this pre-cleaner helps extend the life of your main air filter and maintain stronger overall engine performance. 

This Briggs & Stratton Pre-Cleaner (272490S) is a wrap-style foam filter that fits over compatible air filter cartridges, trapping larger particles before they reach the main filter. It’s engineered to OEM standards for proper fit and trusted performance on select opposed twin cylinder and Vanguard V-Twin engines. 

Key Features:

• Genuine OEM Part: Designed and manufactured to Briggs & Stratton’s exact specifications for reliable fit and performance. 

• Effective First-Stage Filtration: Foam pre-cleaner captures coarse dust, grass clippings and contaminants before they reach the air cleaner cartridge. 

• Extend Main Filter Life: Helps reduce clogging of the primary air filter, meaning fewer replacements and extended engine service intervals. 

• Easy Installation: Simply slip over the air filter element—no tools needed for quick, hassle-free maintenance. 

• Fits with Key Filters: Works with 394018S and 394019S air filters on compatible Briggs & Stratton engines. 

Why It Matters:
Airborne grit and debris can accelerate engine wear and reduce performance. Installing this pre-cleaner helps keep larger particles out of your engine’s air stream, protecting key internal components and helping ensure smooth starts and reliable running in dusty or rugged conditions.
