O.S. Engines 15CV-X - Manual (Page 9)

This is a heavy-duty wet type air cleaner that has
been developed specifically for the O.S. MAX-CV
series model car engines.
It contains specially impregnated filter elements which
prevent highly damaging dust and dirt from being
drawn into the engine through the carburettor, yet
allow engine performance to be maintained for longer
periods between element renewals. The Type 102 air
cleaner has a special rubber body which facilitates
easy yet secure fitting, with positive sealing at the
carburettor air intake.
AIR CLEANER TYPE 102
INSTALLATION OF AIR CLEANER
Carefully clean the carburetor,
removing any old adhesive or
sealant that may have been
previously used on the outside
of the air intake. •
Press the air cleaner body firmly
over the carburetor air intake. Make sure that the
outer rim of the air intake engages the internal
annular groove in the air cleaner: failure to do so
may result in the air cleaner falling off. See sketch,
right. •
INSTALLATION OF THE CARBURETOR
As delivered, the engine has its carburetor
lightly fitted into its intake boss. Secure it as
follows.
Loosen the retainer screw, rotate the
carburettor to its correct position and make
sure that it is pressed well down into the
intake boss, compressing the rubber gasket,
before retightening screw.
Rotate the retainer screw gently until it
stops, then tighten a further 60-90˚.
Do not overtighten the screw as this will
damage the carburettor body.
