XE Breather hoses

[auzzy-b]

Just wana check were the breather hoses go..
The red one is the fuel reg vacuum pipe
the other (black pipe) from the rocker cover. Are they the rite way around?
obviously the other thicker pipe from the rocker cover go to the hole above! but what do you do with the one underneath, does it need banking or just leave it?

What do you mean?

You dont want that nasty join in your fuel line in your engine bay.

I thought the black ones goes to the breather under the two small ones, that's under the tb?

[Adam]

Thats where mine goes to /\


And then basically, any that you arent using, blank off. DONT leave them open

[Benn]

Make sure you clean the banjo bolt that the breather fits out out. Its always blocked. But dont drill it.

why not? Thats how it was originally..

so thats the one in front of the pipes shaped like this /\ which connect between the resavoir and inlet? Then its just a case of blanking the one on the top? Banjo bolt??

[Benn]

Right, the top two, left is how you have it. Block the right one with a bolt in a bit of tube.

Under them there is a twin legged thing with a bolt thru the middle (each leg has a water pipe on it you can see one in your pic) The bolt is a open tube on the end, that's where the small oil breather from the cam cover goes. Because this gets oil in it it gets jammed up and will need cleaning out. But don't try and drill thru the dirt as the hole decreases in size in the middle.

If you change the size it can affect the idle.

Im with you now Benn, well explained! thanks bud:thumb:

[Benn]

Cool cool.

[auzzy-b]

Will this do for blanking off the fuel vent valve connection like you said to.. i used a rivet and just chopped of the end, does it need clamping because its pretty darn tight!??
