Could anyone help me as to the type of material this is? Mine is pretty ragged, almost gone...

I never figured out how to remove the mesh stuff from the oil bath type. Or at least replace it once it was removed! But if you are talking about the dry type, very nice copper mesh replacements are available from Cole's Ignition. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 55 Member | | Member Joined: Dec 2002 Posts: 55 | Thanks Brian, yeah, mine's the dry type. The stuff was real greasy and when I tried to clean it up with solvent, it just sort of fell apart. Never heard of Cole's; I'll try them. Thanks, all. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2000 Posts: 587 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2000 Posts: 587 | I figured you where talking about the dry type. Cole's has a lot of interesting stuff, just call him and he will set you up. I sent stovebolt the link, but I see it has not been posted yet. In the meantime, here it is:
