One of the biggest problems for our brave co-pilots are the smells coming from the engine into the cabin.

Do you have suggestions to minimize those?

The only thing I did found is the isolation of the air filter housing. This rubber can be either badly fixed or twisted. Making the perfect fit, helps.

Any other ideas?

Thank you

Replacing the carbs base gaskets was a big help for me… Available at AML for little money...

Roger, I know what you use this mask for... but how do you host the pics now?

Vincent, I think so too, and this will be the project for this winter!

After replacing my manifold gaskets last year, I have no smells in the cabin.
