Raised Air Intake Question

Sep 24, 2003 6 Replies

Chaps,



is the raised air intake on the defender literally just a "snorkel" with a cap on the top to stop water entering or is there some sort of extractor fan in there to stop the fumes acting as a restrictor ?



Also where is it attached to the engine point as i'm looking for the distance it's running and where the cat would be



thanks



Lee

The better one's have internal baffles to cause the air to rotate inside the head thus maintaining full air flow.
