#1 - Tell the twit on the 'phone that the lawnmower was stolen and you
bought it from the thief. While it was in his possession, he obliterated the
serial number, so you can't really help with that.

#2 - Does the mower work WITH the existing filter in place? If so, you're
good to go while you wait for the mail to deliver a new one. Failing that,
does the mower work WITHOUT an air-filter? If so, you should be able to
fashion a temporary substitute (a handkerchief, coffee filter, etc.). Be
sure to strap the replacement down - small engines super-suck. You wouldn't
want a doily stuffed in the engine's cylinder.


#3 - Snow blowers don't use air filters. Remove the air filter and mow
the grass when there is snow.
