Hey guys, first time for me doing anything to my engine earlier this week, just wanted to clean my air filter and get some cheap small hp gains and also some experience..
Was just wondering if the hose is only on the top half of the air box but I couldn't get it on the bottom of the air box connector, is that necessarily a bad thing?
It's half on, with the bottom of the hose pushed upwards partially blocking the air box connector. All the connections have been tightened though. So it's sweet on the engine side, tight on the air box side but half-connected.
I also used engine oil lol to loosen it up because I don't have any other lubricant, pretty sure that using engine oil can damage the rubber I think?
But anyway, I went in thinking it would be easy, that the rubber would be gentle and easy to work with but it was anything but.
New hoses could be a possibility, however I don't have the moolah for a new air intake kit right now.
