Re: Im stumped on something silly. Air filter setup.
![]() That filter is a fire waiting to happen. The stories you hear are not BS, they are very true. I have one I use as wall art packed away somewhere since the move. Even having one, I would (and have) drive with NO air filter before putting that POS on top of my engine. |

What is it that makes them so dangerous? I decided im just going to go with the k&n triangle filter. Not the dangerouse one.

Re: Im stumped on something silly. Air filter setup.
the foam in those will trap gas spray. Every time you pump the throttle to fire it up, a little sprays upwards and into that foam.
All it takes is the slightest of a backfire... just a hickup, and it can light up. I ignored everyone on this and learned my self. |

Yes that is the engine in my truck.....That harness cover you see there is nothing other than an A/C vent tubing that we ran the harness thru all the way to the fender. The body shop was supposed to smooth the harness hole also as we were going to put it on the left side at the bottom of the floor and then they did not do it and the firewall was painted we had no choice but to rig this to make an attemp to cover it up as best as we could.

At least the paint on the hood was already burned before I ignored the guys that knew more than me. I burned quite a bit of paint and ruined a nice leather jacket putting that fire out. |
