76mm Snorkel Head

Post by Peter Connan »

In a moment of inattention I wiped out my snorkel's head on Saturday.

If anybody has a 76mm head for a Safari (or similar) snorkel lying about, I would appreciate it.

I don't know the current lie of the land but some 15 years ago or more I discovered that, at the time, a Safari snorkel head was a standard part on the Donaldson catalogue and sourced one from some trucking supply place. If you don't come right with a used part then maybe start scouring the trucking fraternity and see if they are still obtainable via that route
