Calling 044 gurus!

Green spit back foam, filter, and band?

Yes, but the outer band was not felt, it was tight foam if memory serves me right.

Did the early 044 have the non HD filter setup like early 064 or 66?

Yes.

Is it just me or they sound badass with a duel port cover....

It was an option,mostly in canada though with the cold weather package,had a flat screen like the non hd 064 like you mentioned.

Early ones had a pleated filter similar looking to the K&N

I did an early 066 like that, too. Had the L shaped early master control lever and a metal carb surround

The earliest ones came with a filter set up very similar to what you see on the 029/039 series.
I may actually have one in the box o parts I have in the basement.

Junkman + AdirondackStihl + Mustang Mike + 044= Gospel.

Never doubt, just watch an' learn.

 

[MustangMike]

The filter that came on my 044 used to look just like that (a long, long time ago).

 

[RI Chevy]

Are they still available? Anyone with a part number?

Those are the ones I'm talking about. Not an HD or hd2. More like a screened or fleece upright filter

 

[RI Chevy]

They might be called winter filters. Wire mesh on outside for snow. They have green in them. I have one.

I doubt you can get them at the dealer anymore, but they are on eBay, but time you buy all three pieces, you will have more in it, then a new HD2 costs. They need to be oiled, they are not as easy to maintain as the HD2 types.

Yikes. Ok. Thanks.

No not the green HD winter ones. I'm pretty sure what he was talking about are these.

One on the left has what's called a winter filter, see how the filter is different, flatter, filter cover is totally different also, then the HD type base and cover. One on the right is the HD type filter system.

That is a nice vintage 044, 10mm at that. Great score, she should run real good.

 

[RI Chevy]

Nice photo comparison. I thought there was a winter type HD2 filter. I'll try and dig it out for a photo.
