k2timbo Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Can anyone help me identify these two oil bath air filters. The larger one is stamped AC on the lid, approx 9 1/2" across with approx 2 1/4" outlet and the other is an AC type, 8" across with an approx 2 1/8 outlet. This was fitted to my K2 and has had the outlet bent outwards to accommodate the larger bore but is repairable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8bob Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Hi, I have had a few 50s american cars and these are pretty common on that era vehicle. I think that those ones being marked as ac probably went on anything that had a carb of the right size. when I needed a replacement, ebay.com(usa) had plenty listed and they were often listed by the sizes - often not vehicle specific. I know that doesn’t really help you, but it is a pretty common universal part. cheers, Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k2timbo Posted March 24, 2019 Author Share Posted March 24, 2019 Hi Bob, Thanks for the comment, yes the larger on does look like it would be at home on a big American unit, the other is the right shape for my K2 just the wrong outlet size.

V8bob Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 I have a spare but it is probably much too big. It is about 2 5/8” bore and over 10” diameter. I think my spare is off a Ford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k2timbo Posted April 2, 2019 Author Share Posted April 2, 2019 The overall size sounds too wide for the K2 although the bore size is spot on for the Solex carb fitted to the later ambulances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
