Hi, just fitted my snorkel yesterday. Went for a drive in the snow and when I came back I thought i'd look in the airbox. About an inch of water in there. So I unbloc:-) ked the weep hole in the bottom and its been fine since.

However I now have a hole that water could get in if I went deep.

Options turn the head round? Or fit some kind of one wayvdrain valve to the weep hole.

Any other thoughts?

What about a cyclonic head?

Does the head face forward or backward?

Forward. Ready fix is turn the head round. All other snorkels I see face foward though.

Got one of those pre-filters on my Jimny, brilliant! The main filter seems to last a lot longer without all the bugs and dust that used to get sucked into it.
