[Farmall] Super C Problem

[Jim Becker]

Some plastics gradually dissolve in oil.  I have no idea how the plastic 
scouring pads would hold up in that environment.

Definitely don't use plain old steel wool. It breaks up when being handled
and who knows where the small pieces might wind up.

Has anybody considered or tried using the plastic type scouring pads.
They're the same size and density as the copper "Chore Girl" brand
scouring pads? They definitely wouldn't rust. Might need to put two of
them in. The pad is just there to catch the bigger pieces of junk that
gets into the air intake and provide something for most of the smaller
particles to stick, to while not restricting the air flow. Same reason
they recommend you put oil on the sponge filters for things like your lawn
mower. Dirt sticks to the oiled surface and you can rinse it out when it
gets too dirty.
