Doodad in air horn vent, what is it?
« on: October 17, 2018, 03:12:52 PM »
This T shaped doodad was loosely wedged in the center air vent in the air horn. What is its purpose and should I put it back in during reassembly

Thanks

Many commercial remanufacturers put those in the vent. Probably to prevent people from trying to put the air cleaner stud in wrong hole.

Ok. Thank you carnantx. That little T will go in the dust bin.
