In the oil wetted type, the filtering element is soaked in oil and as the air carrying dust particles passes through the oil soaked element, most of the particles are filtered out. In the oil bath type, the air is directed down upon a reservoir of oil where most of the dust is collected. The direction of the air is then suddenly reversed, throwing out more heavy particles of dirt, after which it ges through a fil- tering element for further clean- ing. The air carries with it an oil mist which is- deposited on the element. The oil return to the reservoir carries with it dust that has been collected in the element. Regardles of type, the air clean- er is of little value if not properly cared for. Properly cared for air cleaners are approximately 99 per cent efficient. However, if neglect- ed, they may be as low or lower than 50 per cent efficient. The air cleaner should be check- ed and cleaned frequently, the ac- tual interval between cleaning be- ing determined by the dust con- ditions under which the engine is being aperated. Under any circum- stances, the air cleaner should be checked and cleaned at every oil change. All connections between the air cleaner and the carburetor must be air tight to prevent dirt from getting in. Otherwise, the pur- pose of the air cleaner is defeated and engine wear will be as great as if an air cleaner was not used. Forty-four creeks in Oklahoma have th name Sand or "andy. ---- . 0.
