I have a smaller-sized VORTOX (manufactured in Claremont, California, model G45E, series 457) oil bath tractor air cleaner here that somehow I thought was off a Case VA but after seeing other VA air cleaners, I know it isn't. I am wondering if anyone out there knows which manufacturer(s) used VORTOX air cleaners? Below is a description if someone can be more specific and maybe even come up with a tractor model. Sorry I don't have a photo available. It's a standard configuration about 9" long overall (the body and cup)with a 4.5" diameter, intake stub (3.5") vertically centered on top, connector stub to carb near the top on the side of the body. It has a 2-hole mounting bracket which also has a larger (1,25") hole in it, probably for routing wireswire, maybe plug wires. Inside there is a small, removeable precleaner mesh assembly that attaches up under the lower body of the main filter. The oil cup (which is held in place by two spring-loader boomer snaps) has a splash dish in it with a spring-loaded support which ensures that the precleaner above stays in place). The removeable air stack/weather cap has a supporting bracket that anchors the stack to the tractor (probably to the tractor hood).
