Whether you cross over water when four-wheeling off-road or you drive in an area where the roads are frequently flooded, you should think about the possibility of the air filter on your cold air intake system becoming submerged in water. If your engine ingests water you could have catastrophic and expensive engine damage! The patented AEM Intakes Air Bypass Valve is cheap insurance against such an occurrence. The bypass valve installs on the upper portion of the intake pipe. If the air filter becomes submerged, the valve closes off induction at the filter, rerouting air through its external diaphragm to keep water out and air flowing in. The Air Bypass Valve comes with complete instructions and all necessary mounting hardware.
