Good To Know
Q: What does the carburetor intake manifold boot do? A: The boot is a flexible passage between the carburetor and the engine intake. It cushions vibration while carrying the air and fuel mixture into the port.
Q: What are signs the boot needs replacement? A: Inspect for cracks, dry rot, or folds that leak air. If the boot is nearly impossible to be sealed when squeezed, it should be replaced.
