Re: Snorkel solved

[Chris <chrphill@iquest.net>]

AAAHHHHHHH, NOT THIS AGAIN.  Alright, once and for all.  The tube that is
located inside the upper half of the airbox is the "Cone".  Let's all say it
a dozen times and remember that.  Patrick was correct when saying the elbow
shaped tube that sticks into the fender is the "Snorkel".  Once again, say
it about a dozen times and remeber it.
Think of it this way:
        Cone:  It looks like a cone, i.e. ice cream "cone"
        Snorkel:  Once again, it looks like a snorkel, i.e. "snorkel" used for 
                  swimming
Cone: Inside top-half
Snorkel: Outside, in front

Keep the round side down,
