Hitachi 6696549 T/CG24EASPSL Air Cleaner Assembly

I needed to install a new primer bulb, as the old one had dry-rotted. Buying this cover with the bulb already attached was the easiest way to fix my problem. Take out a couple of screws, disconnect the fuel lines and take the old cover off. Put new cover on, reconnect the fuel lines, and install the two screws. Youre done! Leaf blower runs like a new one!

The whole reason I replaced this was because the plastic around the bulb broke, and the bulb was simply hanging in mid air. It was easy to install the new one, but then a clip on the new one broke and now the plastic flap will randomly open and expose the air filter. The blower its on is super old and still works, so Im happy to spend this to get a few more years out of it.

I purchased my blower from a pawn shop for $20 because it was missing this piece. With it becoming harder to find reputable small engine mechanics with a good turn around time, I decided to DIY this. This item was delivered at 11:15. By 11:30 I’m finished installing and writing this review. It was a breeze to install as it’s only 2 screws and like one other reviewer said it does come with the filter. Be careful with the hoses and gasket if you plan to reuse. (I was careful) Also since it comes with a fuel bubble, ensure you pop the old one out of the other device if it’s still good. Now I’m on my way back to that same Pawn Shop to purchase another blower for $19 with a bad bubble and some other pieces that I will be ordering.

The Hitachi 6696549 T/CG24EASPSL Air Cleaner Assembly fits the Hitachi RB24EAP Leaf Blower perfectly. The replacement is rather simple, just two screws to remove the assembly and two fuel lines need disconnected / reconnected. My reason for the replacement was a ruptured primer bulb (seven years old) and a failed foam air filter. The entire assembly is less expensive than the primer bulb and air filter plus you also get a band new choke assembly.

I have replaced the priming bulb once already but it didnt last. I was due for a new air filter as well so I purchased this assembly which included both. The factory bulb is sturdier than the aftermarket and this unit just bolts on perfectly. I used forceps to remove and install the fuel lines. Easy repair and my blower starts right up and runs like new. Cheaper than the individual parts purchased separately.

Simple install works perfect

Great product

Quality of item was exalted. Packaging was splendorous. Notably rad delivery. Exceptionally pleased.

Order arrived in a timely manner and well packaged.

Bought this for my Hitachi leaf blower because the primer bulb split. I decided to buy this because it came with the bulb cover and air filter.
