How Valuable are snorkels Version 2

" I do'nt think so -
I think you'll find that your looking at the video being played in reverse, from the time that it stops, stalls or sinks .....
Bazza.

Bugger, have to wait till i get home again, bloody firewalls.

As long as the car floats higher than the airbox intake inside the wing who cares. The Safari video is a hoot.
Snorkels are great and if one was made for the Frontera I would fit it. No one makes one so I make do with a blind. The deepest water I have been through with the blind is 700mm and there was a just splash of water in the airbox when checked after. If the Frontera was diesel I would be worried. Petrol I would not unless the airbox was really flooded.
By the way no one will ever convince me that a snorkel gives cleaner air when the intake faces forward. In dust conditions following another vehicle the intake facing forward has to suck in more dust. My brother-in-law has a snorkel on his diesel Rodeo and it faces backwards. That is the way it was designed. Now that makes sense.

Now, if he had been kitted up for touring, with another couple of ton's of gear on board, he would have stayed on the bottom and driven out the other side.

It's an argument for carrying old heavy gear instead of all that new fangled light weight gear they keep trying to sell us.

Duncs.

sorry but it looked to me like the snorkel went under water for a second or 2 . Now we all know that there is no way a diesel would have still run after that , I agree with the video is in reverse

This video is not reversed. Driver of the vehicle is actually looking back while reversing out.
