I use a Dyson vacuum filter - seems to work!

if u change the filter to a less restrictive one (K&N)wont the engine run weak and therefore a bit hotter?? so the carb might need to be tuned or whatever
or am i talking a load of balls

yes it will make it a bit weaker but with an old series 2a, its a bit and miss if u can tune it up anyways.
basically they either go or dont.

they sold these things to farmers ffs.
