P1000 Pre-Filter

[X50]

I pulled off the cover from the pre-filter and here is no foam block in it like shown in the manual. In searching threads, I saw a reference to the pre-filter being deleted.

Should it have a filter there from the factory? I'm not finding the part on a google search, but maybe I'm missing.

I've seen the snorkels some have added and like the idea to free up valuable space under the hood. I'd like to keep it under the hood though as I'll never be going through water that's well under the skid plate. Suggestions for parts to make it (hose size, filter, etc.)?

Its not stuck inside the cover is it?

The newer style covers hold the foam inside. If not it was probably missed at the factory.

I’m having a hard time putting the hose on. Any tips? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk You could heat it up some, which will probably help. I simply greased my up, pressed downward on it and TWIST it back and forth. No clamp will be needed, it is TIGHT! I tucked the end up under the dash.

Okay my mod is this. Rubber hose over the piece that sticks up.{ I had a piece that was wider at one end than the other end. It was a piece that I had laying around.} Then a 2" pvc elbow on the other end of the hose that comes up and sticks through the cover. I then used a short piece of 2" pvc that fit into a 2" to 1 1/2 " pvc reducer then a short piece of 1 1/2 " pvc pipe and then this filter on the end. Works great and catches all the dust . It's way cheaper to replace this filter. The performance of my machine is the same .The only thing that is glued together are the end pieces that fit into the reducer. Also the rubber hose is clamped to the part that comes up and the 2" elbow. So 2 hose clamps.

Nope, nothing inside the cover either.

Take your filter cover off behind the seat and see if its in there?
unless thats where u already looked? Ive had mine get sucked in once and it was stuck to the filter itself

I'll take a look in a day or two (depending on weather and other tasks). Sounds like a serious design problem if it can suck it back to the main filter.

After spending some time looking at the search results for "snorkel", I came across a post from @bumperm (who also has an SE with all of the extra stuff taking up under the hood real estate) which made me realize that his solution is probably the only workable one. The parts are on order.
