You guys & gals are great. A little tale about fitting a snorkel. Back in Feb I posted a query about a snorkel for a 1990 Nissan Terrano. Well after much advice and searching I found one suited for ‘Terry” made by airflow. Then the installation, I can remember someone saying about drilling the first hole!!!!!! Well after marking out the holes, drilling the holes and trying to fit the snorkel the fun began. Question, how do you get a screw driver up into the top of the guard with a maximum clearance of 32mm? Answer you can’t. Solution off came the guard.

Having two batteries up front meant that the incoming hose to the canister didn’t fit. Solution, drill another hole in the inner guard lining up the snorkel with the canister. Problem solvered. Day and a half later Terry rolls out of shed with his bright new snorkel. I am glad I had a go, I know some of you would be saying he is mad but I did it.

Now that we are prepared we’re of to Cape York in early July. So I just ask you big boys who are going up as well, look out for us little guys because we can almost, and in some cases further, go where you go. If by chance you see a champagne Nissan Terrano, with a new snorkel, from SA with a Tassie Tiger on the back say Hi. Looking forward to a great time. Final note keep up the great forums, they are so helpful and sometimes down right funny even though some are testing.
