Air filter housing

Post by Su Bullock »

Does anyone know where I can get hold of a replacement air filter housing? I have a round, cortina/sierra type on at the mo, but the housing is cracked and I've been told by the man from CCI (Ian Poulson) that I need to get an original 1.6/2.0 litre laser one (the oblongy type boxes) as the one I've got doesn't fit my twin wbber properly anyway. Anyone help?

If you are set on getting an original filter housing and the local scrap yards have nothing,try Partfinder U.K,directory enquiries will give you the number it cost about £2.oo for the phone call then any breakers yard that has one phones you back with the price.I have used this service on a number of occaisions and it is very good as you can usually choose from 6-10 people sometimes more.
You could also consider fitting a performance filter such as K&N or piper .These will enhance engine performance but you will use slightly more fuel,Mark;O)
