Hi I'm new on here, so I hope this is the right place to ask the question
I have an old AB penta volvo outboard, which I manage to unseize and get working
Not knowing enough about outboards I initally assumed that the air filter was missing, But apparently the smaller ones tend not to have them
However there is something missing that goes in front of the carb:
It is here as shown from this photo I found from another one online. I doubt i will be able to get one the same, but does anyone have any suggestions about what to put there. On this following one it seems to have a nozzle of some sort, which I am surprised at as it would seem to restrict the airflow in.
I am guessing something is at least required to stop bits of junk or splashes of seawater from going in. What would be a good substitute? Or is there a generic thing that i could buy?
Many thanks
