4
Reasons Why Your 4WD Needs A Snorkel
1. COOLER
OPERATION
Whether your 4WD is powered
by a petrol or diesel engine, it's dependent on air for its operation. Fitting
a snorkel means the air supply is drawn in at roof level and not the air
intake, which is located in the often very hot and dusty engine bay. The
cooler air stream enhances engine performance for either commercial or
recreational use.
2. LESS
DUST
Because the Airtec Snorkel
draws air from roof level, dust isn't as thick and plentiful as it is in
the engine bay or inner guard where many engine
air intakes are located (if
you look under the bonnet after a few kilometres of driving in dust you'll
see what we mean!) The relatively cleaner air, via the Airtec Snorkel working
with the original air cleaner system, will help extend air filter effectiveness,
therefore reducing wear of vital components and leading to extended engine
life and reliability.
3. EASIER WATER
CROSSINGS
Fording streams or rivers is
not the time you want the engine to die. Diesel engines in particular are
very expensive to repair if water should get into them. But with the air
supply via a positively sealed Airtec Snorkel well above water level, you
can expect worry-free water crossings so you can focus on picking the best
and safest route across.
4. RAM AIR
EFFECT
Because a snorkel is forced
through the air as the vehicle travels, it creates what is known as ram air
effect. This has often been found to provide a welcome increase in engine
performance.
