  1. Also a help if you put a couple of threaded studs into a couple of the holes the connecting bolts go into.

    Once the box is on these studs it will slide together much easier & reduces the chance of a slip. Once all fitted & you've got a couple of bolts in remove the studs & fit the remaining bolts.

    Used it for years refitting engines & gearboxes to each other after clutch changes & makes it all so much easier & safer. Lengths of threaded rod are a couple of quid from B&Q, just cut a couple of lengths off.

  2. Looking at the instructions it suggests a new airline. I presume this is to avoid using a manky old airline that could have had God knows what through it.

    The suzie type lines are small bore & generally a complete waste of time for other than tyre inflation as they don't allow the required volume of air to pass through.

    Wihout seeing it I would guess that you require standard type PCL couplings.

  3. The K&N reply makes much of 'increase in performance'.

    The dirt collection they describe as between 96% and 99%. That is reflected in the 96.8% figure given in the Duramax tests. BUT looking at the filters in those tests most of the paper ones achieved 99% plus efficiency.

    Without getting into an argument, the fact that someone uses one for on-road & light off-roading but isn't prepared to use it in serious conditions - the sahara post - says it all really.
