Greetings, I have an 8N and was wondering what the top of the air filter can is supposed to look like. My "can" has a flat top, extending about 1/2 inch from the top of the tube routed to the carb with a piece of screening held on by a band clamp to cover the rough cut hole in the top (really sophisticated primary filter eh?). I have seen many pictures of assembled 8 irons with different air intake port hardware sticking out from the hood but I haven't found too many pictures that indicate what pieces I am missing. The hole in the hood has been welded closed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds to me like you're getting close to having an air cleaner set-up like the 9N/2N without the door coming out of the side of the hood.

The older style on the left, that's the one I have, is for the 9N/2N. There were a few variations for this air cleaner. The one for the 8N is on the right. That's the one you should have. Your hood is suppose to have a screen door for this type of air cleaner.

Tyman-
The one that (I think) came on my '41 has the screen like your first diagram but doesn't have the clips on the bottom. I have a locking ring.

I also ended up with an extra that has the screen and clips like your picture. Any ideas which came first?

Good question. My 1940 air cleaner actually has the thumb screw w/clamp.

Here's what my parts manual has:

9N 9600-C1 (Flat type cup w/oil cup retainer clamp and thumb screw)

9N 9600-C2 (has removable top w/oil cup retainer clamp and thumb screw. Top held on with 1/4"-20 wing nut)

9N 9600-D (has removable top w/toggle lock oil cup retainer. Top held on with 7/16"-20 nut and lockwasher)

I've seen alot of '39's with the flat cup. My '40 has the round cup and I think it's original. The inside of it had the old dark grey 9N paint color. I've seen alot of 1940, 41, with the round cup. Dwight Emstrom has a '45 2N with the round cup w/retainer clamp and thumb screw. I've seen the toggle lock cup retainers with flat cups.

Any other ideas? I'm confused! :-)

Tyman-

The one on the left is the one that came w/ my 41. The one on the right is my "spare". Now, what am I going to do with the spare when "the Animal" is done?

LOL
