WTB: M38 air cleaner

Post by Wally P » Tue Nov 07, 2017 4:59 am

Looking for a decent (not perfect) but overall complete air cleaner for an M38.

Thanks in advance.

If it looks like this, I have one. I also have another one that looks like this but shorter from top to bottom. I will try and take a pic tonight.

I think mine may be for a M38a1. Until someone tells me, I wouldn't know.

That looks like an A1 to me. M38 is flat on top and has a second outlet for hooking the snorkel to. Also M38 A/Cs don't have all those holes in them, they are watertight.

If you don't have one you should pick up Ryan's book on M38s, it is full of useful information.

I have the correct one. Will send you pictures. Has the proper pre-cleaner with it.
