HEYS auzookers my sierra has had a body lift before i bought it and so the carby is higher than the airbox so the hose that joins them keeps splitting so is there any auzooker with a body lift that had the same trouble and how did they fix it please helllpppppp it is a 1992 widetrack 1.3L

[lukes_89]

would it not be the other way around air box higher then the carbo as the airbox is on the shell of the car? also could get some of that flexi hose from supercrap and run a new line..

I cut and shut the carbi hat to suit the new angle but thats a bit of work,
I'm not sure how everone else has done it

[89_tintop]

had no problems with the 3 body lifted sierras that I have known/worked on..

did you replace the hose with a new one? or how did you fix it

sorry im not much help.a

I put a 50mm tube Extension on the top of the Carb then put the std Carb hat on. I just had to get a longer bolt to screw it dowen to the Carb.It's great.

send jas (built4thrashing) a pm, he had the 50mm tube on his old sierra and might still have the extension and bolt hanging around his shed

Hope this helps you

thanks a million bruce best help ive had since i bought the car 1 more thing how did you extend the thread for the nut and washer to reach it to seal cheers luke

[Bruce]

Undo the threaded bolt thats in the carb now and replace it with a long hex head bolt. So when you put the hat back on you just need to put the new hex bolt down through the hat and screw that into the carb.
