[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1323289, member: 3828"] Yeah, it's a big deal. The intake (dirty) part of the air box is the center of the air filter from the snorkle on the left side. If you leave any opening into the rest of the air box you are bypassing the filter with intake air. Someone on here had a big leak into their air box that eventually allowed enough dirt and grit into the intake that they lost compression and had to replace the engine at an early mileage. Don't be that guy. Get it connected back up and seal the air box correctly. [/QUOTE]
