Thread: Demister Troubles

On the bottom of the air inlet box under the guard is a small one way rubber valve set up.
It is towards the back and under the air inlet box . Take a look from the top with a torch and I think you can see it Feel around for a small rubber fitting , squeeze it and water will come out.

It's designed to let water out but not in. Leaves , dirt etc will clog it up

years ago service stations had antimisting paper they gave to customers. It was wiped on the inside of the screen and stopped it fogging up. I know about these because my dad was the printer who printed them. But I do not know how they worked or if still available,

Agreed

But presumably they would keep most of the rain out when stationary e.g. while parked going nowhere in Sydney's rain of the last few days.
