INSTALLATION
WARNING
Installation of the Teardrop Air Cleaner on carbureted motorcycles
is limited to closed course competition use only.
NOTE: The Teardrop Air Cleaner may be used on 2001 and later fuel
injected highway motorcycles.
1- Remove the existing air cleaner and clean the carburetor or throttle
body face and the cylinder head mount faces. These surfaces must
be free of any burrs or remaining gasket material, which could
prevent a proper seal or fit. See Picture 1, below.
2- For S&S® Super E or G carburetors, remove the existing enrichment
device and install the supplied S&S quarter-turn enrichment
device. See Picture 2, below.
3- Locate the bracket, three ¼" - 20 x 1/2" socket head cap screws,
gasket* and shims from the bracket kit.
NOTE: A gasket is supplied for the S&S Throttle Body or E & G Carburetor.
The gasket for stock Harley-Davidson® motorcycle applications is also
supplied. Select the appropriate gasket.
Some brackets have a secondary breather passage that must be
connected to a breather system or capped. See Picture 3.
For S&S 41/8" V-Series carbureted engines, locate the breather hose
attached to the rear cylinder head and connect it to the secondary
breather hose fitting. See Picture 4, below.
