and done
 unscrew three bolts holding airbox down so there is a little movement, force it in, screw it all down, nice and firm. |

ah i remember that problem
as well as heating it to clear the the powersteering pump, you have to cut a little bit away from the part where the snorkel goes against the airbox, then put a new screwhole in the snorkel itself to mount it to the radiator cover piece then you have to fiddle with the rubber strip on the bonet which goes around the snorkel, as the snorkel will be in a slightly different location to factory EDIT, i didnt read your initial post properly.....thought it was for your 5.0 :gren: Last edited by LUXO_8; 04-08-2005 at 05:40 PM. |
