A modification designed for all-terrain vehicles, particularly the Suzuki King Quad 750, elevates the air intake and exhaust points of the engine. This aftermarket accessory allows the ATV to traverse deeper water and mud without ingesting these elements into the engine, preventing potential damage and maintaining operational integrity. The components typically include tubes, connectors, and mounting hardware specific to the vehicle model.
The advantages of this modification extend to enhanced engine protection, particularly in environments prone to water crossings or muddy terrains. By relocating the air intake and exhaust, the risk of hydrolock a condition where water enters the engine cylinder, causing catastrophic damage is significantly reduced. Furthermore, preventing the ingress of mud and debris into the engine components contributes to improved performance and extended engine lifespan. The concept originates from adapting similar techniques used in other off-road vehicles to improve their all-terrain capabilities and reliability.
