Does anyone have any paper air filter suggestions for a 1971 1.7L oil bath air air cleaner? I am keeping the car stock, and I would prefer not to use the oil.
I have seen a thread where someone cuts out the mesh and welds the top and bottom back together, but I have to believe there is a standard air filter I can just insert or rework that could do the job. Any advice is appreciated. |

The oil is really effective, and works...
plus its part of the archaic character I don't have answers for your question I'd use it as it was intended. brant |
