greetings
my 240 runs on LPG (gas) and is inclined to backfire occasionally. This seems to be fairly normal and i've been resigned to the inconvenience it can cause. Before anyone asks, yes the mixture has been carefully adjusted for the best results
well, it did it again yesterday - literally blowing apart the airbox, filter and all the associated plumbing (this was a particularly violent and loud backfire). An expensive exercise this time round
so, i would like to replace the air filter box arrangement completely, so that any further backfires result in less damage. It should even be possible to arrange it so the weakest point is in the connecting hose. This will hopefully help minimise any future damage
my question is, has anyone used a universal hose clamp type filter? I am wondering which particular model is suitable or if in fact the filter specs are that critical in any case
thanks for any info
