getting enough air

[Anonymous-0]

i was wondering is there a way to get rid of the oil in an oil bath breather and put some kind of air filter in there. thanks

Unless you're just trying to cut weight, leave it alone.

It isn't the oil in the cup that creates the filtering IIUC. It is the oil vapor that gets carried up into the screens and then pulls the chunks out and drops them into the oil.
I have drained mine at the pull and then refilled it before the trailer, but then I realized that was stupid.
Are you running out of power? If not, then leave it alone!
If you want get rid of it totally I think Denny's Crap Shop as well as some others sell a pipe that runs out the stock hole and has a K&N filter clamped on the end of it.

dump the oil out and put rubbing alcohol in it the alcohol cools the air works best on a hot humid day
