Hi all, very new to the world of suzuki's and wanted to know what this hose on my 1.3 does? I mean I know it's for adding warm air into the intake but is it necessary? I live in grafton nsw and it doesn't get very cold here at all maybe down to 1-2 degrees early morning in the middle of winter, the pipe needs replacing but I'll block it off if it's not required. Cheers wilso |

its nessessary for emmisions and legality but generally doesnt make any difference to the running of the car |

Thanks for the quick reply, I'll source a new hose for now. Can having this connected create over heating problems in the summer months? |

no, there should be a valve that turns it off when the engine is up to temp i think. |

I have fitted a snorkel to my zook and have now lost the airbox side connection of this pipe due to the snorkel fitting. So I was wondering if the open exhaust side where this pipe attaches will affect the purpose of the snorkel? Don't think it would but should I be blocking it up some how anyway until I get extractors? Not exactly on topic but I though I should just ask here as it's based around the same thing. Thanks guys |
