jaysm35a2 Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Watts Mack sells the new canister to change it to a dry filter. The oil bath works alot better though , Jay Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/14486-air-cleaners/#findComment-57880 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 I'll second that motion same as Jay's. I'd rather pour the dirty oil out and wipe the unit clean and put new oil back in than have to buy a new filter insert each time it needs one. The way it is now, you buy nothing. Most of us have some clean oil around the shop. Thats just my 2 cents worth. Money is no object to some people. mike Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/14486-air-cleaners/#findComment-57882 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been told when I go to a endt 676 285/300 hp. engine with a tip turbin I won't get enough air flow through an oil bath arrangement. I've heard I could modify an oil bath to accept a dry element without paying $750 for 2 canisters from Watts Mack.
