    You will have to fabricate an adapter the same way Rui did as far as I know there are none available over the counter and haven't been for several decades.

    Problem with that adapter is there is not anything to attach to the 1904's clamp fitting.

    You have to fabricate something that will slip under the carbs clamp, as Jeff said.
    Do you have the original oil bath cleaner? You can either chop off the needed part if you no longer want the oe cleaner (I kept mine), and make you adapter from there, or just mimic its shape and contour.
    Then fire up your MIG and weld the thing on your new cleaner's base.
