Weber Air Filter
Weber Air Filter
What air filters are people using on their Weber carbs? There doesn't seem to be very many options. The filter that came with my Weber (#99400.291) is deteriorating after a few months. I've never had a paper element get so bad that it starts developing holes, let alone a reusable washable style.

Re: Weber Air Filter
I just used the short air filter that came with my Weber kit and it was fine. I haven't heard of anyone else having theirs disintegrate but maybe yours is faulty for some reason. Can you post some pics of it?

Here is a photo. It's like this in various amounts around the filter.

Re: Weber Air Filter
I always buy 1 3/4 filters on eBay.
They typically only last me about 6 months to a year before they're completely clogged with crap. I've knocked em out several times and gotten pounds of dust and sand out of them.
It's frustrating they don't last very long. I might try a filter sock and see if that improves it any.
