Snorkel Help!

[Mikedaskter]

Well yesterday i went off roading in the cj, and besides the electrical fire i did great except one thing. a lil water got into the carb and bogged me down in the hole i was in. Does anyone know of a company that makes CJ5 snorkels? all ive found is yj and up so i think there might be some modifying needed to one i would get.

Thanks.

UUmm, wait...

.besides the electrical fire

?

That sounds like a fun trip! :laugh:

Someone just recently posted something about a CJ snorkel...But what engine and carb do you have? that would make a difference.



OH! Welcome to the BEST CJ site on the 'Net!

EDIT: here is one guy's home made version. Maybe you can steal an idea or 2 to make your own.

How do you manage to get water in the carb before you drown the distributer??

thats a good question my answer is i dont know! i think i have a special distributer that doesnt let it in. i bought the jeep last year and im tryin to get it straight. (the upgrades and restoration were half <-BAD WORD-> done.. the only other thing i could guess is it just splashed the right way up into my airfilter.
