yeah ive already searched this site plus many others for the answer, and ive read MOSt (not all but most) of the articles about it. But i just wanted to be sure of it because my snorkal just recently melted onto my airbox so once i take it off its off for good, so i just wanted to be 100% about the whole thing before i go ripping the snorkal out, and no1 seems to be very clear on the matter. but yes i do apologize, there are alot of threads talking about this, im just a worry wart
