Title: 72 Eldo Air Filter Housing / Emissions Part
Post by: Ryon1000 on June 01, 2012, 03:50:35 PM
Looking for the Duct Adapter & grommet that attaches to the underside of snorkle of the air filter housing.  A heat tube runs from it to the exhaust manifold shroud. Thanks Everybody, Les

Les,
There are two pie3ces of "plastic" there.  One elbow attaches to the round collar under the air inlet tubge of the air cle3aner, and the second "clips" to the first and then connects to the flexible hose whioch connects to the sheetmetal shield over the left exhaust manifold.
Kind of hard to find these in "perfect" condition due to their exposure to heat, etc.

Thanks Greg,
Nice to hear from you again.  Have not had time to tackle the spaado issue yet; it's that time of year for school teachers.  I will let you know the results.
Any idea what years may have had the adapter?  When did they start putting that on the snorkle?
Be talkin' to you.
