fitting a snorkel to a 200tdi 90 advice needed.

(1/2) > >>

j.stobart:
Hello again all,
I've got a second hand snorkel that I want to fit to my 90 converted to 200tdi engine and I need a bit of advice.

Its the type that goes into the engine bay through the nearside wing vent, the thing thats bugging me is how I seal the plate bit that mates to the bit inside the wing, I just dont see how it can be water tight, its as though there should be another part to it. or maybe its just me being a bit paranoid, has anyone got any pictures or links to topics where this has been done or anything to put my mind at rest.  :?

paul_humphreys:
You have to remove the wheel arch to get at it. Then use lots of sealent.

I think I'll just put the one i have that goes in through the wing top, seems a lot of messin about for the side entry one

L90OOK:
Fit it like the southdown snorkels.  8)

good answer, those side mount snorkels are a pain in the @rse.
