Dear friends,
I’m getting kind of confused about the part
number on the yellow with red letters Air Cleaner decal/transfer.
What’s the correct number that should be on
there?
Is it the part number for the Air Cleaner Housing (so
to call), or is it the part number for the (paper) Air Filter Element, to use?
Reason I want to know this is because I have a set of
Air Cleaners powder coated and need new decals. Looking for them on eBay, I
noticed/found them with correct part numbers for the Air Cleaner Housing, but
can’t find them with the correct part numbers for the Air Filter elements,
which gave me the hunch the part number on the decal/transfer might be for the
housing, not for the paper element. Whilst I was thinking it would be more
logically to have the part number for the element on such a decal, since that
would simplify the ordering process (having the part number ‘at hand’).
Not very significantly important here, but since I’ve
mentioned it and gathered the information anyway, the 1955-1958 Parts List
lists the following:
