    Hey All..
    I have been parting out a 37 Terraplane and finally got around to the oil bath air cleaner.
    Can someone tell me what the bottom section of the air cleaner's purpose

    is??
    It is the section that bolts to the carb below the cleaners oil reservoir.
    It has a tube clamp on the bottom and a 1/4" threaded hole on the side.
    I've seen a lot of oil bath cleaners, but never one like this..

    I believe that's the vacuum inlet for the line that powers the Electric Hand.

    Yup. Hard to stump Jon. I have one I took off the 39 CC I just scrapped out that had an electric hand.
