What have u found to work good for an intake plug while pressure washing ur quad? I have a fuel customs intake and would like to find something that fits in there snugly and seals up nice. That way I can wash out the airbox without removing it.

I've heard of people using various plumbing supplies (I think more the septic line of products like rubber boots with clamps, etc).

Anything you can think to do to modify a damaged air filter? I don't know the design of what you are dealing with. Maybe just heavy plastic and a hose clamp?

ive either taped a bag around it or stuck a rag in it.

pretty easy if you think about it.

4" rubber cap. Home Depot, Lowe's etc sell them. They have a stainless steel band clamp that allows some size adjustment. I have used them for years with 0 water getting in the intake. Works for FCI & Pro-Design.
