My tired old Air Box is in need of replacement. Don't know if anyone has a serviceable one kicking around.
(1974 C-150L, Stock O-200)

Thanks!

You might also consider getting yours repaired by Joe Rogg, the “Air Box Doc”. The Cardinal forum has rave reviews about his work. Here’s the contact info I found:

Thanks Kirk! Mine has been rebuilt one too many times. Though not by the "Doc". I'll check him out.

Here’s one, not mine listed on kijiji canada. https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-other/hamilton/aircraft-cessna-150-carb-heat-box/1588865263

Tactic, did you ever check out that "Doc" airbox repair guy? If so, what was your experience?

I may be looking at carb airbox issues on my plane. Wag Aero has an aftermarket C-150-style airbox available for about $275 (looks kind of cheap in the photo), and then there's the flimsy looking el-cheapo one being sold on Aircraft Spruce.

I wonder if "Doc" does complete refurbs of C-150 airboxes? He advertises C172 and C182 airboxes, but not C-150.

McFarlane has approved, like-OEM, brand-new airboxes -- and they are not inexpensive -- $3K to mid-$3K -- for C172 and C182, but none for C-150.

My email conversation with the Airbox Doc:

I may be interested in a refurbished C-150H (0200A) airbox.
Or, I may be interested in having my existing airbox refurbished.
Do you do C-150 air boxes?

Thanks. I belong to the Cessna 150/152 club. I will pass that information on. A lot of these old air boxes are wearing out. There are no new ones to be bought that I am aware of, except for cheap aftermarket ones.
A few final questions:
What is your turnaround time?
What is the cost?

Turnaround time usually a week or less. Cost based on parts and labor. I only charge $60 an hour. I have customers across the country and will not have an unsatisfied customer.
