1946 P2 10 HP - Air Filter
Can any one let me have a photo of the air filter as fitted. My car did not have one when I acquired it. I now have what is supposed to be the correct item and swan neck, but can't figure out how they fit. The RSR manuals do not help.

Here are some pictures:



Actualy, the original filter is not effective in removing dust. Look here for possible modification:

Barry Foster is a pre-war MMM ( MG ) supplier. He is retailing remanufactured MG TA air cleaner canisters, which look remarkably similar to the Rover ones. They just need a dip in cleaning fluid and allowed to dry every 2000 miles or so, I will be looking on his stand at Beaulieu this year, taking a sample to match.

Re: 1946 P2 10 HP - Air Filter
Many thanks for your help, my problem is that, the Swan Neck I obtained has a different spigot diameter to the solex carb I/D amd O/D, also the Rocker Box Breather fixing stud had been sawn off, however, i'm in the process of making an adapter. I assume that the support strip for the Filter fixes on the breather stud.luli wrote:Here are some pictures:
