The future of traveling for a scooter and a moped. But owners of these scooters often encounter such a problem as overheating of the engine, or as the thermal wedge is also called. Our author also encountered this problem, and here is what he suggests to avoid this problem. The thing is that an air-cooled engine sometimes does not have enough air to fully cool, and an additional air intake should be installed. And so what did our author need to make this fixtures.
Materials: tap of a PVC water pipe with a diameter of 100 mm, plastic mesh, adhesive tape.
Instruments: hacksaw, knife, screwdriver. nippers.
So the first thing the author cuts 2 cm from the pipe outlet
Then the cooling casing is removed for the next revision.
Subsequently, a section of the outlet is put on the casing and fastened with screws
After fitting, the excess is cut off with a hacksaw
In the pipe outlet there is a pair of sealing rubber bands, we get them out and install them on the casing. It can be additionally greased with sealant.
The next step of the author, he secures the tap to the casing and secures it with screws.
Makes a trial fitting.
To avoid any stones and debris getting into the air intake, a protective net was installed.
But the grid is short-lived, in the subsequent author installed just such plastic with holes.
Subsequently, the air intake was painted from a spray can.
The last stage is the installation of the casing with the air intake in place.
That's all the air intake is made and mounted on a moped, the problem of overheating of the engine cylinders is solved.
