INLET SYSTEM

Inlet system
The inlet system is the connection between the air filter and cylinder with the
intermediate carburettor.
For engine function, it is essential that the inlet system closes tightly, to
prevent dust from entering the engine and because the fuel/air mixture must
always be correct.
