Reply to "Replicating a Mangusta Air Cleaner"

...good question Seems to be random, and the peculiarity is that (as Steve noted) the motors don't do anything...there is simply no door to actuate, this is the motor that goes to nowhere and does nothing.

   So my guess, it was something adopted with the expectation that it was part of the whole "approved" smog package needed to at least sell to California then, implemented with the smog pump and air injection but not fully implemented on the snorkel choke (and then, wouldn't we need 2 on a goose cleaner? ).  The vacuum motor is itself a Ford part,(C8AZ-9D612-A)  it appears that DeT took 'all of' the approved package as the EPA was brand new and requirements for import at risk...So if you have the "star trek" bell housing, there was probably a white fan smog pump and you should have the motor. https://www.ebay.com/itm/22459...7:g:JXcAAOSwaEVhLo8e

So easy to mount one if you want one. And no worry of it not functioning...Lee
