E26-2 Cockpit Locker - Am I missing something?

[KS Dave]

Thanks for the picture.

Does the Westerbeke 10Two have this? I don't know of any air filter on it.

I could not find a reference to an air filter in the Parts manual, although there are plenty of oil and fuel filters. Our Technical Manual says this about air filters:

7. Clean Air Filter if supplied. (Most models have an air silencer that does not require cleaning.). [p. 20]

I almost never run my blower and don’t notice any exhaust fumes from the engine in the cabin or in the engine compartment. Maybe I need to sniff harder around the engine.

It’s the black hose arching over the engine into the air filter. You have to customize the filter a bit to accept the hose fitting.

That sure is a pretty & clean engine!

Pretty. You paint your engine, don’t you?
