Walker Airsep Air Cleaners, are used on the Cummins Engines, the air cleaners Must be serviced to allow the engine proper combustion. To do this you will need, the Walkering Cleaning and Re-Oiling Kit, (Part# DDF9000) 1 kit will do 3 cleanings. The kit cost about $32.00 and is available from Walker @ 818-895-7788, yes a credit card will works for this. Its very valuable to go to the Walker Airsep website and read up on the filters, they are @ http://www.walkerairsep.com/ just a quick note: the small airsep from the valve cover must be straight up and down to operate properly. One tip if your blowing black smoke, check that the oil return from the bottom of the airsep to the pan is open and oil in flowing back down to the pan. If that hose is plugged or kinked the oil cannot return to the engine pan and will be pulled into the turbo and that will cause the black smoke.

 

Small Airsep cocked on an angle is a No, No. The correct way in straight up and down. Cummins ships them on an angle for packing reasons, on initial setup they should have been turned. The large Airsep's filter code on the inside rubber is (K&N) A075A4, this is a part number of K&N filters of Riverside CA. Their Technical Support number is 909-684-9762, or their toll free # is 800-858-3333, they are also @ http://www.knfilters.com .

 Our Airseps cans were dropping off, it happened 6 times. I made up a bracket to support it out of 1 & 1/2" by 1/4" Al stock and a piece of 3/4" by 1/8" stock. I put them together with two 24" band clamps around the black airsep canister and here is the result.
