Many owners replace it with a compact chrome cleaner to clean up the engine bay and make it easier to reach the carburetor. A torn or missing filter lets dirt and grit straight into the engine, which wears the cylinders, pistons and valve guides fast. A clean foam element keeps the dirt out and can be washed and re-oiled at each service. Note that dropping the stock air cleaner also removes the warm-air preheat and the crankcase breather connection, so the car may run a little rougher when cold, and you should route the breather hose properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove the stock air cleaner and plug or reroute the preheat hose.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoute the crankcase breather to a proper catch can or breather filter; do not leave it open near the exhaust.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFit the new air cleaner squarely on the carburetor neck and tighten the clamp or wing nut evenly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck that the throttle linkage and choke move freely with the cleaner fitted.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA smaller cleaner can change mixture slightly; check idle and mixture after fitting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this fit my 1972 Beetle?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
