Short answer about the air cleaner is no. There is nothing more modern that still looks "stock." That's because...
There is absolutely nothing wrong with the oil bath air cleaner, and no need to upgrade. Look at how old the tractor is, and it's still running.

Right or wrong, that's reality, and the tractor's still running. Change the oil and forget about it like most everyone does.

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
