The filter uses a twin-layer foam construction combined with a rigid internal structure that allows a larger volume of air to pass through compared to standard filters, without compromising filtration quality.
This specific model (RT2-252-427) is designed for twin Weber DCOE 75mm carburettors on Ford BD, X-Flow, and Vauxhall C20XE engines. While a blank baseplate option exists for custom applications, direct fitment is limited to the specified setups.
Cleaning frequency depends on operating conditions, but it's recommended to inspect the filter regularly. For performance applications, cleaning every few thousand miles or when visibly dirty is advisable.
These Ramair foam filters are designed for dry use and do not require oiling. Cleaning with hot soapy water is the recommended method.
The T304 grade stainless steel cage provides structural support, preventing the filter from collapsing under high airflow conditions or during cleaning, ensuring it maintains its shape and performance.
'Bolt On' indicates that the filter is designed to mount directly onto the carburettor flange using a specific baseplate, simplifying the installation process compared to universal fitting filters.
Verify that the correct application-specific baseplate is being used and that it is properly aligned with the carburettor. Ensure all mounting hardware is tightened appropriately.
Check that the filter is clean and not clogged. Ensure the filter is completely dry before installation. Re-verify correct installation to prevent air leaks.
Inspect the twin-layer foam and stainless steel cage for any tears or deformities. If damage is found, the filter should be replaced to maintain effective filtration and airflow.
Setup: This filter is designed to bolt directly onto engines fitted with twin Weber DCOE 75mm carburettors, utilizing the included application-specific baseplate. Ensure the baseplate is correctly oriented and securely fastened to the carburettor flange before attaching the filter element. For applications requiring a custom fit, a blank baseplate can be machined to suit.
Compatibility: Primarily designed for Ford BD, X-Flow, and Vauxhall C20XE engines running twin Weber DCOE 75mm carburettors. Always verify your engine and carburettor setup to confirm compatibility before purchase. Other Ramair filters with different baseplates or sizes are available for varied applications.
Care: Cleaning is straightforward. Gently remove the filter element and wash it in hot, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to air dry completely before re-installing. Do not use harsh solvents or high-pressure air, as these can damage the foam. Ensure the filter is fully dry to prevent moisture ingress into the engine.
