Where can I find the pancake filter element to fit my air cleaners for my 2 SUs 1 1/4″?
I would like K&N filters. Any suggestions. I am curious how your air cleaners are mounted on your TD. I bought a set of K&N’s and found that the radiator stay is in the way. I researched this some time ago and could not find K&N to fit my TD. The oil will get dark just by periodic use and should be changed at least every 3000 miles or sooner on a TD. I use ths Stellings/Hellings units and they look great and were a period accessory. To keep your car looking “right” the S/H should do just fine. At one time I was using TF-type dry filters on my MkII with the 1.5″ carbs. They were just window screen. I found that the paper element from the air filter that fits 7hp Kohler tractor/lawn equipment/stationary engines could be wrapped around the window screen and do a credible job of filtering out dirt. Cheap, easy. I went to an OEM filter when I could find one. See some approx year old issues of TSO for my tech tip and some better ideas that followed. BTW, my guess on the black color of the oi
