removal of 'flame trap'?? 900

ok everyone, i gotta ask, what's this about?? as was told to me by another member, this is the area in which to look, and learn, about the flame trap. i bought my daughter an' 85 244DL, 4 cyl, fuel injected. have had my share of trials since we've owned it, and , coming across another member's post concerning removing his flame trap, i had to come and check this out! what exactly was this device designed to do, and, if it was there in the first place, then i guess it was up to the owners of the various models to figure out that it was unnecessary, and began removing it for more power, performance, etc. so, i'd like to know, has anyone done it on the 240 series, where is it, and should it be something i should address right away, car has around 220K miles, and i've got her running good. i'm lucky, because my kid is rather responsible, and tends to baby this car, even tho it's older than she is! so, if this is something that is a necessity, i'd like to know, i've been given a lot of good info thru this forum, and it's nice to know that there are others out there who are willin to help newbies, like me! thanks, louis
