No Start Problem Cured 200 1985

"Looking at the tube that goes behind the headlight, it would seem that there is some serious restriction there. I wonder what would happen if I were to do a modification to this, "Snorkel", and cut it down to it's largest diameter? Any thoughts on this?"

• This comes up fairly regularly here, and the consensus of respected opinion is that it would be a waste of time. Someone did an elaborate flow test that showed the stock system and (filter) needs no "improvements:. That applies to K&N too.

A search (above) might show some details.
