It's the tall oil bath breather (about 8 inches tall).....however, all the pictures I have seen show a breather that is a little more like a pancake - say, 3-4 inches in height. I'm not set up to use photos yet (need to get on it), can anyone help? What does the correct breather look like for these old engines.

The oil bath breather was a option for trucks used in dusty invironments I.E. gravel roads. the other is a top and bottom cover over a inner and outer screen filled with a steel wool type filter that was soaked in oil. Hope this helps. This info is in the shop manual I belive, look on old online manuals on the net. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,270 Bubba - Curmudgeon | | Bubba - Curmudgeon Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,270 | | | |
