Hi NormK yes I guess they are quite rare to find now and because of their age the rubber is getting old and cracking everywhere. I am not too fussed as I don't use the VC160 for everyday mowing. See the later G4/LM type snorkels will be around for a long time as they are still selling the 2 strokes now with pretty much the same style vacuum hose type snorkel.

But the early G3 carby mowers with that long rubber snorkel hose are getting hard to find now.

Cheers!
