Re: Oil Bath Air Cleaner Element Reconditioning

So here's what I'm going to try... cleaned out the element in gas, was SUPER dirty. Bought some MERV 1 cut-to-fit filter material, cut it up, and fed it through the webbing so that all the original media is on the bottom of the filter. It still doesn't come up to the top, which I figure is fine because I'm guessing the filter media shouldn't be compacted, but it should prevent little strands of the original fiber from getting sucked into the carb.

Only fear is that it's too restrictive, but it'll be easy enough to remove the MERV-1 filter material if it's bad.
