Title: Air Filter Housings
Post by: Yoshi on February 22, 2007, 18:10:20: Is there a difference between the air filter housings on the 3.5efi and 3.9efi?

Just tried fitting one which possibly came from a 3.5efi but its too long :-s

Are you sure its too long fella? I had mine off recently and it was awkward to get back on but went on in the end. It did look as though it would not fit.
