2022 Motor has a different air intake then the 2021 so the TORO 136-7806 air filter will not fit. Local scag dealer was not able to locate current air filter ... I found OEM in Ireland with free shipping to the states...
I too just bought the same in Aug2022. Dealer has said the Loncin engine has done well ... better option that the Kohler but maybe not on par with the Kaw. Time will tell.
