Ive just put my rebuilt 1400 sr engine back in with the 1200 head, 1300 inlet manifold and 1400 pierburg carb.

Right i have two pipes left not re4ally knowing what to do with.

The first one comes up from the same place as the oil breather on the side of the crankcase next to the larger bore pipe which normally goes to the standard airbox.

The other one is of small bore and comes out of the back of the inlet manifold.

the seond breather pipe from the crankase, seal the end off and hide it away somewhere

and as for the other one out the back of the inlet manifold?!?!?

the only pipe i have is the water pipe, cant think what else may be there TBH

you sure its not the whole for the temp guage?

are you sure your supposed to seal the opil breather pipe (theone that used to go in the airbox)?

I was always told to leave it open but aim it at the road out the way.

:?

Yes with the breather pipe either aim it to the road or make a catchment tank up (coke can etc) or go to a scrapyard and get a motorbike brake reservoir if you want a nice chrome one.

If you block i up you will collect oil in the pipe and will end up very messy.
