Thanks Don. I called Universal and I guess mine didn't even have one to begin with. Basically they told me the same thing you did.....great minds think alike.
I appreciate your help.

The engine eats them, but does not appear to do any damage. Some say you don't need them because the air is cleaner on the water. I say, it couldn't hurt, even if they are ridiculously expensive for a little piece of foam. I think I gave $12 for one at my local Universal dealer. Don, #6293, Niceville, FL Date: Friday, March 12, 2010, 9:07 PM Hi Catalina People, Went to clean the air intake foam filter and didn't find one. Can somebody with an M18 tell me I am not alone and this is by design. Thanks
