Tonytoro416 1,295 #1 Posted October 20, 2025 Like to find a down draft style carb for the 953. It has a replacement engine in it instead of the 10hp if that matters. Let me know if you guys have anything 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 45,058 #2 Posted October 20, 2025 (edited) 953/1054 didn't use a down draft carb. Are you thinking about the original oil bath air cleaner? Edited October 20, 2025 by squonk 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tonytoro416 1,295 #3 Posted October 21, 2025 Yes you are correct. I’m sorry I misspoke yes the oil bath air cleaner. As you know the normal air cleaner and 953 grille are close fitting and not real serviceable 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 45,058 #4 Posted October 21, 2025 I have the regular paper style air cleaner on my 953. Take the 2 screws that hold the grill on and remove the grill. Then it's easy to service the air cleaner. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tonytoro416 1,295 #5 Posted October 21, 2025 Your air cleaner base isn’t almost touching the back of the drivers headlight socket ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
