I would like an oil bath cleaner

Anybody have one in good condition they want to ship to me. I have a 226 flat 6 with the 7HT Carb. I am not looking for a show winner but good serviceable shape would be nice. I was going to fill mine up and noticed it had holes rusted through it from sitting empty.

No body has one laying around? I figured with the number of people I see replacing the original motors someone would have one. Is there a place to buy a reproduction unit?

If you can't get ahold of one here you might take a look at Ebay. I know I've seen a few on there from time to time.

My 226 Oil bath cleaner was in the same condition. Welded up and still leaking. Instead of replaceing it, I adapted it to a paper filter. Looks stock from the outside but inside, it has a nice walmart available paper filter with no oily mess.

I believe the one I've just dug out of my garage will do the trick.
P.M. me & lets dicker over it.
