Does the ebay snorkel have a pre-filter?

Yessir thats all it is. Pipe length is 12".
All done. Thanks for the idea to go to the roof. Works great and looks so much better. And with gas in the tank, it started, ran and died as it should when I blocked the intake. Woo hoo.

Snorkel is in. Held my hand over the pipe and the engine quit in seconds..faster than I thought it would. Also got the 4 main vent lines extended to the roofline.

Now, to take it camping Friday night and play in some water...

There are 6 vents. Rear diff, front diff, fan box, adjuster box, sub trans and fuel tank. Do them all. Have no regrets.
Yeah, I skipped the adjuster box and the fan vents. I went with the 4 main vents that would cause a lot of damage IMHO.

The adjuster box vent is curious...why does it need a vent? Just to keep it dry in there? There are only three cables running in there (IIRC).

I may run down and get some clear tubing to extend the fan vent up under the dash. It seemed like it was plugged off into a plastic clip up front when I looked at doing it. I don't see the fan running too much during water crossings and causing the water to be sucked down that tube....but that is a very uneducated assumption, admittedly.

I just took a vacuum T and tied the fan to the front diff. Did the same with the adjuster box and vented it with the sub trans which I also ran the rear diff to. I figure better safe than sorry and also followed the advice of the P1000 Gods @Delton, @CumminsPusher, @joeymt33, and @AKRider who are smarter and very experienced with these machines.

No idea why that box is vented. I figure Honda engineers are way smarter than me so I just went with it lol. I spliced into the stock lines with my extensions. That way I know there's a good seal.

I agree. My only question is will they honor the warranty with a snorkel installed.
Snorkel? What snorkel? It'll be showroom stock when I take mine in for warranty work lol

I'll quote what the dealer told me....you don't need a snorkel. I'm like you. I'll put mine back to stock.

With the intake near the passenger seat head how much noise does it make? All i need is more noise in my cab.
I don't notice any increase at all. I carried on a normal conversation without any issues. I also sat in the passenger side and it's not noticeable. No need to be concerned.

The bellows failed me on the rear diff! I advise not to use them.

I believe in those fuel filters you're using. That'll be my next step for waterproofing.
