is this worth doing

i have bin thinking of putting a air filter on my series and a electric fan would i have to put a little air filter on the breather pipe going to the carb as well? would i gain any mpg doing this

id say that was ok ,you get more benefit keeping it well serviced

I've got a K&N air filter because I've got a Defender Carb on mine but I want to change back because it is very noisy. I should think there would be no performance penalty that you'd notice.

As to an electric fan - brilliant idea. I do lots of short journeys and I fitted a Kenlowe. I can now turn off the choke very soon after setting off, before it could be 8 miles or so before I could do that. Benefits on mpg and engine wear.

as said you will do is make your engine noisy if anything use more fuel kenlowe fan is a fab idea
