Oil Bath Air Cleaner
« on: September 13, 2015, 05:19:14 PM »
A friend of mine tells me that the frame mounted oil bath air cleaner was only used on the military Simplex. Is that true?

No.  It was used on some civilian models as well.

Thanks. That's what I thought too. Does anyone have a photo of an actual civilian Simplex with one as standard equipment?

In my opinion that 48 with that clutch system along with the visible flywheel puller and the upright oil bath air filter and the front muffler can is the most beautiful Servi-Car model ever made,Cheers...!!

I have the oil bath filter on my 48. Just cleaned mine out earlier this week. Love it. From what Wayne has told me Simplex only used it for about a year and a half? Anyone know differently? Apparently they are sought after.
