I knew I'd seen this somewhere, just found it. Looks like by design, the water should get expelled at the head.

Some have a water trap built into the head, the Brazilian ones have a one way valve at the base and some rely on the drain in the air filter case. Just wondered what they had.

Mine isn't here yet, although expecting it to turn up this week based on your shipping times. Think I will need to enlist some help. Lifting the bonnet off is a 2 person job IMO. Unless there is a way to avoid doing this, but suspect there isn't enough room to fit it into place without removing it.

When will you be fitting it? Are you going to do the install yourself?I knew I'd seen this somewhere, just found it. Looks like by design, the water should get expelled at the head.

I don't have a snorkel on my Jimny, but I did fit one to my GV, and rather than block the hole in the filter box, I drilled it out and fitted a small duckbill valve - it's essentially a one piece flexible silicone one way valve.

The instructions do not mention anything about plugging the drain hole in the filter box, so they must be relying on that.

Yes, I will be fitting it myself. I think I will wait and do it over the Christmas break, unless I do get chance beforehand, but doubt I will.
