For Sale CO: ISO F Air Cleaner and 1978 Part Out (Edit: Air Cleaner Found - Part Out In Progress))

[tancruiserjr]

Need the F air cleaner to bolt onto my 2f conversion. Also parting out a 1978 color code 277. Rust on every panel except the doors and i'm using the drivetrain, otherwise let me know if you need anything!

 

[scrapdaddy]

Is this the housing you need? I now know this is NOT for an F motor.

Talking to myself here, but I think this is the correct one, found it in parts pig today, a 71...

With an F intake and F carb, no problem. Have one on the Karma Cruiser 2F.

 

[Pigeaten]

good to know, thanks

So, the one I posted on top is NOT for the F motor, but the one on bottom is.

Dang so I need to add to my list an F intake and carb

Edit: so the F cleaner won’t fit the 2f carb because of height or because of carb diameter?

Ahhh ok. I’m still trying to figure out what I need to piece this all together. Sounds like I’m going to be hunting for an intake and carb as well

 

[Pigeaten]

I have a 2F air cleaner if you need one

I don’t understand the part.

Just laughing because my parts list is growing longer by the day!

Appreciate it, but I’m trying to stick to the original hood

Ok, wasn’t sure-good luck

Yes Ron, it is. Do you have the mounting bracket? Also, it looks like one of the mounting studs is broken.

The fundamental difference is that the F air cleaner is designed to clamp AROUND the F carb. The 2F is secured via a wing nut that clamps DOWN the lid to the top of the carb.

Ahh ok thank you for the clarification. I'm pouring through the fj40 forums right now trying to self educate on early carbs/dizzys and what this will take. The donor is a '78 but appears to have a dual-diaphragm vac advance ('79+) installed. On the Karma Cruiser did you switch the distributor to a vac retard to match the F carb?

 

[65swb45]

No I run a brand new vacuum advance dizzy, the same one I offer on my website: PN 010-01A

Yes, the bracket is still on the motor and yes, one of the studs is broken.

Mark I need that bracket, On the head to air cleaner thanks
