Boot Modifications

[Bigger the Better]

Don’t throw out those used boots.
There are a couple things to do with them.

First you can use the end of the boot on your carburetor linkage. Cut between the 4th and 5th rib and install it to help reduce the crap getting sucked in the side shaft.



Second you can use that same boot cap with the two ribs left to cap off the top spark plug hole.

considering getting them on without splitting them is a PITA, prolly not much.
