My plowtruck has a civilian 230 with a E7T2 carb on it - but no air cleaner. Does anyone have any sources for a cheap aftermarket air cleaner that fits it? This does not have to be stock by any means - the cheaper the better. The old girl is simply a plow / parts truck that never leaves the property. All the good parts go on the other M37.

Thanks

Sorry-I do not. Mine had that carb, too when I bought mine, and they stuck a little old doughnut air filter around the orifice-didn't seal worth a diddly....

How about JC Whitney ? they are usually pretty cheap..

Good idea on JC Whitney but no luck - even talked to a tech at JC Whitney and they could not help.

Picked up a universal unit at the local auto parts store but it is more like a small engine air filter then a truck engine in terms of size and area of filter.

Noticed one at VPW but they get you on the shipping fees.

I'll keep looking. On the good side the truck is only used when there is snow on the ground and I'm never out of first gear so I guess I will never suck in any road dirt - but I worry about the paint and crud in the engine compartment.

My truck has a carter BBS on it, and had no air cleaner when I got it. I bought a Mr Gasket universal air filter for it, Its only about 4" or 5" in dia, and maybe 2" tall, but it seems to work just fine. I don't think these motors really pull that much air in. I think I paid like $14 for it. the chrome looks almost comical.
