i've sunk my 350 rancher for the 5th time its time to get a snorkler im sick of changeing all the fluids and opening up the moter and cleaning it out
wat u think is a good brand
and how would u install it

 

cheak out www.highlifter.com and they sell a snorkle for the rancher 350 for $98 with instuctions and all, or if ya know how to make it your self its really simple and cheaper if ya know how to work some PVC pipe, basically jus find where your pipeing goes into your airbox and remove the stock stuff and work form there, flex pipe helps a lot too, u also might want to find your differential and your carb vent lines and run those up with the snorkle to keep everything dry, good luck!

i waz planin to buy a snorkler and extend it cuz the area i ride in has like 5 to 6 feet deep water. wat else i should do to make my atv water proof

 

yea bought mine and after i put it on i relized it was too short so i fabricated it up and only used about half of the kit and extended it a lot taller, MAKE SURE U USE A LOT OF GLUE DONT BE SHY, under the seat u will see where vent lines r coming out from your front and rear diff. and from your carberator, jus get a few T's and some longer hose and run those up with the height of the snorkle, your crankcase vent should already be ran into the air box so when u extend the snorkel it will keep the air box dry and the crankcase vent will be ok, another trick i found out it look at the bottom of your carb and there is a overfill hose running out from the bottom for extra gas to drain out, well b4 u go riding in water i always put a lil scerw in the hose to plug it up so no water might get up into the carb, but if u flip it or on a steap hill u have to take that scerw out so gas will drain from the carb, thats what i have done and u should be set to GO DEEP!

would any water leak into the gas tank

 

yea its a possiblity but i've never had a problem at all and i ride deep all the time, but you can cap off the vent tube coming out of the gas cap or u can extend that line up with the snorkle too, i always put gas treatment in my tank when i go riding jus to dry up any water that could be in it and jus to cleen the carb, but u gotta rememeber when u ride deep the front end mostly away comes up andu ride water wheelies threw it so the gas tank really aint in the water

i always ride water wheelies so it shouldent be a problem
will the snorkler affect the motor

 

oh yea on thing i did forget, u might have to rejet it but see how it runs first, if anything it should run a lil better, but u will know if u need to jet it when u give it full throttle right away and it kinda wants to stall then u might want to rejet it but jus a snorkle might not affect it, inless u have a pipe and filter then yes u will need to rejet and u will love to performance difference after, it depends on the attitude where u live that the jets in carb go on too that affects how it runs with a snorkel
