He went awfully quiet for a while
He must have been absolutely ****ting himself. I know I would have. Not that I would have gone in unless I saw someone else do it first.

Been in that same situation where the marker was not right and the same in the 90 1st low foot flat down. and as he said that is scary

engine dosnt sound very happy when he gives it a bootfull towards the end. might pay to have a look see inside the filter housing etc
a lesser driver probably would not have made it thru from the looks of things

The only thing with snorkles is you don't know if they are water tight or fitted corectly untill you do somthing like that
The amount of people that put snorkle on to a defender and then think it is ok to do that stuff . But forget to seal up the rubber value (dust value) on the bottom of the air filter and then the water gets in there and damages the engine anyway

Great point...Rattling roads up north caused me to lose a bolt..only noticed it yesterday when I was re tightening everything.. the bottom of the Snorkel had come away from the body seal.... Im going to silicone it in place when I replace the fitting to make double sure.
Also the moisture outlet on the Air cleaner canister is nearly always fatigued...
