[T2] horsehair air cleaner

[david raistrick]

hmm.  since we didnt get uprights in 73 in the US i’m not sure which filter
housing you have.  its metal and oil filled?    all uprights in the us in
beetles etc has plastic housings w paper filters.

i’m thinking those 6mm ports are ports for a vacuum? operated bypass for
the warm air intake (that 99% of the time is disconnected and or doesnt
work).   if your warm air isnt hooked up i wouldnt worry about them.

i’d just make sure the oil breather is hooked to the air cleaner.
