Just buy new filters- I change mine on all saws without max flow kits every year or so. Small investment for an expensive bit of kit

 

Don't worry I will.👍

Its currently one of these filters, fine metal gauze with a blue sponge inside, both parts washable in soapy water.  If I can get it to seal properly now, I will replace like-for like.

Stihl also do a material cover for this filter, sure, it will impede airflow a bit but life is a compromise!
