When there is shot in the air, there is hope. When in doubt, throttle out! ATA, NTA, NATCA, ITA

Sounds like I just need to buy some of that and replace it. Awful poor design. The windshield literally directs sticks right into the corner

My Skandic SWT has that same screen on the left side cowling and I stuck a stick through it this week, but it is just into the open space above the belt, not going straight into the air intake, so I figured it would be ok.

Well, it's a vent, meant to keep snow dust and stuff out that goes....somewhere....but to be honest, I haven't looked to see. New sled and all
