Recently I did all the fun intake/exhaust mods to my '98 XJ 4.0: '01 intake manifold; Airraid cold air system; header; bored out TB;Dynomax cat and catback exhaust.
The only glitch is that the plastic intake tube from the K&N filter that goes to the TB is rubbing the paint off the interior side of the hood. The hood is aligned properly. The silicone adapter collar that goes between the TB and intake air tube is on fully and the tube is pushed into it as far as it can go... and I have trimmed the collar back as much as possible. I am not using a TB spacer...not sure they work and it would probably cause the intake tube to dent the hood at this point.
Has anyone else had this problem and found a fix for it?
