SJ Samurai - My air inlet housing has a smaller diameter than my carburettor, where can I find a larger one?
I have a 1995 Suzuki SJ413 Samurai, 1.3L petrol, manual gearbox.
I've recently been to the Suzuki dealer and purchased the factory-standard carburettor air inlet housing, but it will not attach to my carburettor.
I suspect this is because the carburettor has been changed at some point; apparently it's common for this to happen to SJs.
I'm reluctant to mess with the carburettor - it works just fine how it is.
I've thought about sanding/grinding the housing inlet until it is the same diameter as the carburettor, but I may then struggle to find a rubber washer/grommet to seal it with.
Also, the plate attaching to the carburettor has no way to attach the inlet housing; surely it's not expected to just "float" atop?
What can I do?
If you need any images, I can be contacted at:

Regards,
Bob.
I took the vehicle to a mechanic today, and he said to mount a sponge housing which would also help to filter the air.
Grinding the housing is just not feasible, so I'm going to give the sponge top a go.
I appreciate the thought put in to the response, though, thanks.
