The old style "bag" type vacuum cleaners work just great too until the pores in the paper get clogged with dust. The new self cleaning designs clean better and even when half full,still clean the same as when you started. Same principal. An oil bath is self cleaning. As far as engines only lasting 80,000 with oil bath cleaners, had nothing to do with the style of air cleaner. Slip-shod machining procedures and worn out equipment equaled shoddy tolerances from one to the other. Low tech metalurgy and low tech lubricants. Even electronic fuel management saves the new engines from washed down cylinder walls from choking and pumping to start old engine designs. Even the simple act of trying to start a cold engine over and over until it stays running as apposed to now-a-days you just hit key and it starts and stays going to get oil everywhere quicker.Almost forgot "lack of maintenance". Sorry OldTanker, I just don't buy that they wore out from inadequate air filtration. JMHO For a hobby tractor use whatever floats yur boat, probably will never make a difference either way.Just more work for nothing IMO.
