I have a very old Komatsu D155A-1 dozer that has apparently gone through many modifications over the years. After air enters the air filter, there is an auxiliary vent about 2-3 inches in diameter that is open and dead ends. I think it must have been connected to the exhaust system in the past, but there is nothing on the existing exhaust system that would support a connection. Every dozer I have looked at has a connection from the air intake to the exhaust. I assume that such a connection helps draw air into the air filter. Should I not be concerned that this connection is missing or should I make modifications and connect the vent to one of the exhaust pipes?
