Can I Change Pipe that Connects Air Filter to Carburetor? By carefulrider (Read 400 times)

Hello all:

I have a 2008, Sunl, Adventure, LB150T-12; 157QMJ, with a 150 cc GY6 engine. The scoot is equipped with all stock parts. The rubber hose that looks like a ram's horn develops tears over time, owing to the tension caused by the bends needed to connect from the air filter housing to the carburetor.

Is there another filter that I could install that would eliminate the rubber hose, but permit me to keep ALL the other (associated) parts stock?

Is this what you mean by ram's horn?:

If it is, you can buy one from Dave at Absolutely Scooters.

Tell him Rich from Scooter Doc sent you and he'll tack on $15.00! Wait...that's not a good thing...hmmmmmmmm. I'd go with this replacement, they last a long time if installed correctly.

Yessir!
That's the one. This one lasted one year. Perhaps I am not installing it correctly. Any suggestions on a correct installation?
