Abstract

A universal air cleaner cover base plate assembly for mounting standard size ring shaped air filters on closely spaced dual carburetors includes a pair of circular base plates formed with eccentrically located circular openings. The openings enable the base plate to be mounted upon the air cleaner flange of the carburetor body for rotative adjustment and their eccentric relationship to their base plates enables the center to center spacing of the filter elements to be adjusted independently of the fixed center to center spacing between two adjacent carburetors. The cover is of a generally rectangular configuration dimensioned to cover the tops of both air filters.
