ABSTRACT:
An air intake system for a motor vehicle having a cab and an internal combustion engine with an air cleaner, comprising a substantially vertical snorkel pipe free from internal obstructions and having an obstruction-free forced air cap at its upper end. A footpipe is connected directly to the lowest end of the snorkel pipe. The footpipe has a sharp right angle bend directly below the snorkel pipe, an elevated horizontal outlet leading to the air cleaner, and air-impeding water drain means at the lowest point of the bend, which forms a water trap, for removing moisture which enters the air intake system.
