Air fuel and spark.

How does your air cleaner look?

I had a '61 Mini that died on the highway - just after a foreign car specialist tuned it up!

I called my uncle, my car guru - he said - I'll send a REAL mechanic over - the diesel mechanic checked the air cleaner and found it clogged.

Since the cleaner had a small horn on it, he turned the horsehair element 90 degrees and the car started fine and needed no service for 6 months!

The air cleaner box in our '90 744 TI had foam rubber in its top, when the foam failed, it turned to powder and clogged the air cleaner in the same manner.
