Is there anyone out there that can tell me about running a snorkel with LPG system in my 80 series cruiser. I have heard they run badly because they suck too much air for gas to run properly. I have also been told it has no effect, and lastly to run a balance hose between the air box and the convertor, and have it re-tuned ??????

it's a 4.5lt multivalve petrol, running standard (non vapour injected) impco system with no computer... I wanted to get a safari snorkel, as i have been told it will provide slightly better fuel economy, performance providing it's set up properly with the gas..

oks cruiserpower yes it will work no problems you have two choises face the snorkel backwards and have no problems or if you face it forwards you will have to richen up the gas just a smigen, you probelly are running a impco 225 mixer so once you reset the mixture it will run fine and it should not effect the economy hope this helps you out some
regards Gary
