Oubaas is Unhappy :(

Coz he can’t breath right and don’t get enuff fresh air. 😮

Problem:

Somewhere buried under that plate of spaghetti is a carburettor. That thing belongs on a Ford Essex V6 engine. But there is no room to put a decent air filter on that carb, so he often chokes instead of accelerating when the sexy driver steps on the pedal. Not ideal.

Solution:

So my darling mechanic came up with this: Some exhaust or sumfink pipe as a snorkel + cone filter = fresh sea breeze all day every day! = happy Oubaas! He’s gonna fit this in while his most lovely client tours €urope. Bonus: Ouby has a place to stay while we’re away.

    • Yeah, not great, innit? There used to be a very flat airfilter on top of the carb but that thing got dusty and durty in no time, so Koos took it off. Not good for the carb either I assume. But without any filter the engine should get soooo much air, right? So why is it choking? And I didn’t experience and backfiring yet. Quite the opposite, it just chokes and doesn’t accelerate well.
      Or is it sumfink wiff da ignition?
      Well, I’ll leave the durty details to you boyz … I just wanna go and look like I have a purpose. 😉
