    Hello Folks
    Well I am having a hell of a time keeping the bottom of the oil bath air filter on.
    I get it tight but when I hit the road she works her way lose every time.
    Any ideas or even were I could get another one?
    Thanks

    I'd start by putting an ad in the wanted to buy section of the classifieds. You might contact some of the vendors listed in the where to buy section also.

    Is the band clamp loosening up? If so, I'd use some mild duty non-hardening Loctite on the the threads or swap the nut out for a Nylock one.
