|
|
So, one thing that kind of irks me about my N/A is it's knacking for devouring leaves inside the blower. I just don't get it! I got so fed up with getting blasted with leaves whenever I turned on the vents that I took apart bits of the dash and cleaned that motherf#$&er so there weren't any more leaves in the damn thing. I also forgot to mention that I did also clean the inside of the actual fan from the outside under the hood too.
Anyways, it was clean. It was wonderful! no more bits of leaves or noise. Then, I parked it underneath a tree one day, ONE Day! You know, not even five hours underneath that tree! (this is in summer, mind you) And now the thing is packed with more leaves than ever! How does this happen? there aren't any holes in the little plastic grill or anything!
How do I fix this? _________________ 1977 Porsche 924 - sold

I have a sponge filter onver the intake of the blower, just under the hood.
Keeps the leafes out...which i never had even without the sponge filter...and reduces the fumes and polution that comes into the cabin.
I'll take some pics next time i'm at the garage. _________________ Supercharger and EFI kits
