Air filter hose location

Post by uniB »

Dumb question of the day - is the hose out of the air filter box s'posed to point into the back corner of the engine bay (1.9DC)? My engine seems sluggish and I was just wondering if it was an air thing - I took the air box off to replace a water pipe and was just wondering if I'd put it back properly. Can't find any pics anywhere.

if you mean DG then yes, points towards the O/S taillight, and may or may not have a ducting going into and up the "turret" to the intake grill in the top rear corner.....

Cripes really!? Mine just looks like this, I guess the ducting wouldn't fit because the LPG gubbins is in the way? I can see how that would make quite a difference.
