This feels like a dumb question but - see below. There's an 'inner air cleaner' glued into my housing, and an outer removable one. Is this normal? I don't see any reference to the inner one in the service manual.
two air cleaners?

Much easier to find info in the forum when you know what you're looking for. Flame arrestor... several posts about them. I had no idea. Thanks!
It will do that. It's also a weak emission deal found on some cars. When the car is shut off, the carbon inside is supposed to "absorb" the fuel vapors emitting out of the carb. Olds VIN 9 had these as well.
It's non-serviceable, so no replacement part for it. GM provided no way to change it out except to replace it with a new air cleaner. It was sealed onto the base by some sort of tough-azz glue. They're usually damaged when removed.

My 81 Vette has that inner flame arrestor filter too. There is no way to remove it since it is crazy glued in!
