Air cleaner

Post by lyletrudell »

I was looking at my air cleaner today.
The stock filter when installed has a lot of room to move back away from the sealing front surface. The gasket is about 3/8 thick and the filter about 3.75". But the housing is about 4-1/2"
Has anyone looked into this problem.
Does anyone make an after market filter for the Coupe?
K&N.....
Thanks

The retaining clip is missing.  This is HC 50186 in the parts book.

Do you have the spring clip that holds the gasket on the element against the air cleaner box?

Hi Bruce and Richard, yep my clip is missing.
My air cleaner is a little dirty but will be OK for awhile.
K&N doesn't have anything that I can find.
Thanks for the help.

What effective aftermarket or "homemade" filter has anyone used as an element for inside the stock air cleaner box?
