Well starting my cvt exhaust snorkel

 

[AreWeThereYet]

Well I said **ck it and went and got some Ridgid 4x shop vac hose, the extra fittings have already come in handy.


I cut the existing cvt exhaust pipe and glued it to the hose adapter for flex hose. I used a heat gun and a hose clamp to conform the existing pipe to the adapter from the Ridgid hose kit and glued it in.

This is as far as I got tonight as I wanted to drink beer instead of actually doing any work. I put the plastics on for a test fit and there is not cutting so far. Tomorrow I will see what I need for the intake and go from there.

CVT exhaust snorkel

Well I finished it off today, I only intend to do the CVT exhaust because of a previous episode of being stuck nose up, arse down in a mud hole. Engine stalled out and CVT housing nicely filled with skegy H2O

Like I mentioned before I spliced the hose pieces together, today I painted them with rubberized undercoating.

Re: CVT exhaust snorkel

Here is another picture after the rear plastics are installed. There is a little bit of a pinch point where is goes forward along the CVT, I just trimmed it a little, later this week I am going to put something around it to protect a little more.

Re: CVT exhaust snorkel

Here you can see it routes very easily, I had to remove one grommet holding some wiring,.. as you can see the two wire looms, if you follow that up you see the hole between the 2 airbox screws. You can just push that wiring back up with the starter wiring.

Re: CVT exhaust snorkel

I had to wrap it around the outside of the fuel tank filler neck because of a wiring harness that was on the inside. Everything is free and not binding in this location, this hose measures roughly 1 5/8 ID and 2" OD, anything larger than 2" would be hard to work with as well as flex.

Here it is with the plastics on

Re: CVT exhaust snorkel

I moved the hose up to beneath the steering pod you can see the orange hose, I figure if I am deeper than this there is water in my engine as well and CVT housing and I am pretty much screwed.
