I need the incoming air from the hood, otherwise how the blower (heat and a/c) will work? The problem is that with the environment air, water (rain-car wash) plus some other things coming inside (bugs, leaves, tree branches etc) and landing on the sponge and the existing mesh of the grill is not enough. The idea behind a small scoop is that will provide some sort of extra protection from rain-car wash plus air debris. Not something fancy as the WRX or 60's muscle car had but something like these examples: On the other hand i don't know if the curb of the scoop will not let the blower to ''soak'' air as it should be and force him to ''push itself''.

My problem isn't the space, i have plenty of it. The fresh air from the hood does not reach the top of the sponge (''cabin filter'') and has a gap which is filled with bad smells from the engine bay. The system is not sealed and dirty air comes into the cabin.

I have it, it's not so good in informations and does not provide codes. For a Rookie is fine but for further things is not.

I copy that idea from Autobianchi which had a scoop on the hood and a much more wider space for ''cabin filter''.

I wonder, a ''low-profile'' hood scoop like this can create problems to the radiator of the a/c? Can soak air thought this? As you know beneath that scoop is the factory grille and the metal lip that drives outside air to the cabin filter and i am trying to find a way to cover that grille so water from rain or car washing won't get inside that filter.

In the past i needed one adapter for an oil oressure gauge and what's the quickest way? A guy with a lathe machine which can custom fix anything, i went and in few minutes i had it in my hands.

Something like this? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281711270295 https://www.wrightsautosupplies.co.uk/product/m12-x-1mm-3-16-or-1-4-pipe-fitting/ https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/dorman-brake-adapter-inverted-flare-3-16-in-x-1-4-in-785-432d/11910610-P https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/dorman-brake-line-tee-inverted-flare-3-16-in.-x-3-16-in.-x-3-16-in.-785-436d/11910603-P?source=certona

That's the 2nd and the 5th solution but what's going to happen with the rain-car wash water drops which will inevitably fall inside? I am concern about the time that the ''natural dry'' will take. The plastic scuttle in Felicia does not provide air, it's away from the cabin filter (in Octavia 1U it covers it) https://www.briskoda.net/forums/uploads/monthly_11_2016/post-132001-0-03211800-1479035440.jpg beneath are the drain grooves which must be take care of from leaves and other dirt, we clean them with compressed air.

There is almost 2 cm empty space and the result is that odours from the engine pass through the sponge into the cabin. Why that space must exist? Wouldn't be better if i ''seal'' the whole system? Think in the other car of yours, the pollen filter draws air from the engine bay as the Felicia does?

Gentlemen, I thought more about how to convert the existing cabin air filter system because the years have passed, i am not young and careless about health issues like before and allergies are getting worse in the environment we live in. This is the existing (factory) system that I have, from its grille air blows in and from below I have a sponge made of activated carbon, while below I added a layer of kitchen filter absorber to hold more particles and to better close the gaps on the sides. The metal lip of the hood does NOT seal well, it is smaller in size than the sponge and does not touch it, so there is almost 2 cm empty space and the result is that odours from the engine pass through the sponge into the cabin. I remind you that rain drops and also water from the car wash to some extent fall on the sponge, which however, dries out through the heat of the environment and from the heat of the engine. Intermediate solution: I put a piece of stainless steel mesh to hold leaf-insects but all the above still apply. 1st solution: I go to a 3D printer, they make a "hat" for me, i.e. a rectangular parallelogram on top i fit a Filtron pollen filter for Skoda Felicia 1600 and an oval on the bottom to rest on the existing plastic frame. Yes, the air will be filtered better by the sponge, but there is still the issue of the odours from the engine room hitting the pollen filter. 2nd solution: Once again, I make a plastic frame with a 3D printer, I glue it back and as it comes down, it completely "closes" the lower structure, completely sealing it as we say: the cabin will only get air from the environment but there is the issue of drying since the engine air will not catch it and I have to wait in a "natural way" for example the sun to dry the Filtron pollen filter. 3rd solution: Again, I make a plastic frame with a 3D printer, I glue it back and as it goes down, it reaches evenly, it will barely touches the bottom construction, so: the cabin will get enough air from the environment and a little bit from the engine, while the Filtron dust filter will dry a little naturally, but also at bit from the hot air of the engine. 4th solution: Using a 3D printer, I make a plastic frame, glue it back and as it goes down, i bring it level with the surface barely touches the construction below, so: the cabin will get enough air from the environment, the screen will keep the leaves-flyers but there will be a minimal space where the heat of the engine room will dry the fine filter which will be made of an kitchen absorbent filter. 5th solution: With a 3D printer, I make a plastic frame, I glue it back and as it goes down, it completely "closes" the lower structure, completely sealing which will only consist of an absorber filter, so: the cabin will only take in air from the environment and the kitchen absorbent filter will dry faster in a natural way, for example the sun, since it will be thinner. @Papez @Thefeliciahacker @Raychev05 @Breezy_Pete @DeanVRS20VT or any other fine Gentleman who wants to help me i would love to hear your opinions.

Was Green G12 or Red G12?

Felicia 1.3 has no pollen filter from the factory, just this charcoal sponge. The plastic scuttle cover is fine and far away from the sponge, the drain holes are OK too. The fresh air (plus water drops) are coming from the hood grille which is above that metalllic lip. We just talking trying to help each other as Human being.

Yes but remember Felicia from factory has this The upper oval shape metallic lip (which brings fresh air into the cabin) is narrower than the sponge and does not seal properly plus the sponge let some dirt to pass from the sides. For years i make complains that i have some odour (like burned coolant for example) inside the cabin. A pollen filter (fitted with patent which would seal properly with he upper metallic lip) couldn't make things better that now?

My dilemma is: should i make the upper metal lip (of the hood) to touch on top of the pollen filter or should it have a gap to circulate the air of the engine room? In the 1st case it will get mostly fresh air but it will be more difficult to dry and smell like mold will come to the cabin. In the 2nd case, it will dry more easily, but air with smells will pass with from the engine room to the cabin. Gentlemen, what you suggest?

https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/422277-water-coming-in-though-pollen-filter/ I have also read this but my question is how fast a wet pollen filter (exposed as i want to put) can get dry?

In mine, water (rain-car washing) falls onto the charcoal sponge and i wonder if i place in it's position a cabin filter will get dry easily or not? The diversion of the water is small.

Here was my previous used ECU. The ECU is not a ''plug and play'' item, the programmer must make too many adjustments after fitting (among them is the immobilizer) fuel ratio etc plus a test on Dyno-road. Yes the programmer can do it but this will turn the car back to previous decades which anyone could start the engine easily. It's a Safety feature.

That's a mistake, you can not know what problem that ECU has (burned, slight damaged, overpowered, moisture, pin corrosion etc). Only a programmer must buy it since will get a six months warranty plus will make the fitting-adjustments etc. I have lived that nightmare in the past, cheap used ECU bought by distance = trap. Hall sensor you mean the Crank sensor, did you check beneath of it if there is an empty space on the flywheel? Tomorrow i will post a photo from the pins of ECU,now it's late and i am on cellphone.

So from where gets only fresh air? From the grille of the hood among air for sure will pass some water and yes will drain through holes but even in surface the filter wouldn't get wet even a liitle bit and temporary?

So actually is 42 internal.
