Air/Smog Pump filter replacement part?
 

I'm replacing the air pump on my W124.036 due to it's annoyingly loud (dieseling) sound when operating. The same smog pump is used elsewhere as well. I see that there is a replaceable filter on the intake air side. What is this part number for this filter or where can I find a new one?. It just reads Denso on it.

Thanks,
Doug

Not Available according to Phil
 

Phil searched for me and spoke to a hydraulic pump remanufacturer and they said this filter is NOT AVAILABLE. Blow it out with compressed air a:(nd reinstall

Roger that, same thing I found when trying to replace mine a couple months back. I blew it out and reinstalled it.

How dirty could it even get.....considering it only runs 2-4 mins when you start the car cold.....

Oh wait, you're in New Jersey. I now understand how it could get so dirty. :D :D

Oh man, that is cold.

yes, but the car has only been here since May, so I'm cleaning up CA dirt and grime from leaky valve cover gaskets and a bad tandem hydraulic pump. It's snowballed as expected... new alternator (150 Amps), new-ish airpump, rebuilt hydraulic pump, new wires, lower harness, etc.

NJ is nice for our seasons, it's garage time until spring! :D

:D

Blame Conan O'Brien....he started it! :D
