The Mazda BT-50 is a premium mid-size pickup that boasts a significant following in Kenya thanks to its modern cabin, huge bed size, excellent towing capacity, and off-road capability. However, without one accessory, your BT-50 is as good as dead! You don’t want your investment to be washed down the drain as if you bought it by luck. Adding a snorkel is one of the most practical and consequential decisions for your Mazda BT-50 because it enhances engine protection and reliability in challenging environments.

Whether you reside in Kisumu, Nakuru, or Mombasa, you are not shielded from the seasonal heavy rains Kenya experiences. These rains could flood a road going to your home, and if you cross it without a snorkel, for sure you will get a very expensive repair bill from your Mechanic. The factory air intake of the BT-50 is positioned inside the front wheel arch, meaning it is likely to ingest water if submerged. A snorkel takes the air intake to the roof level height, significantly reducing the risk of water getting into your engine. A small amount of water in your engine causes damage to pistons and cracking of the engine block.

The majority of Kenyan roads are covered in murram, meaning driving through them stirs a lot of dust, which is likely to clog your air filter, blocking clean and sufficient air from reaching the engine. Clean air is needed for enhanced performance. Adding a snorkel draws clean air from the roof level height, reducing the amount of dust reaching your air filter, hence reducing engine wear over time.

Besides adding an appealing off-road look to the Mazda BT-50, a snorkel helps reduce contamination reaching critical engine components like the turbocharger, Mass Airflow Sensor, intake manifold, and intercooler.
