- Apply a small amount of
quality sealant to the inside
of each end. Spread sealant
evenly. A thin layer is all that
will be needed for the inside
to seal correctly. To much
sealant can act like a lubricant
during final assemble and
cause tube to slide off inlet.
62
- add extra sealant to the
inside lip of lower air box
inlet and elbow as shown.
Extra sealant can also be
added to the outside as
well.
63
- Apply a thin film of sealant
around end of aluminum
air tube. An excessive
amount may cause the
elbow to slide off air tube
when tightened.
