Rocker Cover Hose

Recommended Posts

matty_gti

hi, just asking where the oil breather hose goes from the rocker cover. does it connect to a seperate bit on the block at the bottom or, the oil 'filler' hose that comes of the block?.

 

And if i wanted to fit an 'oil breather' becasue i have got a K&N fitted, where should i fit it to to let it breathe more???.

 

Cheers.

The hose from the rocker cover goes to the side of the main oil fill hose, the one from the spigot next to this on the block goes to the back of the filler neck iirc.

See picture here

Unless you fitted carbs I wouldn't bother.

Yes matty, it connects to the bottom of the filler pipe, i have done it to many times, in fact my filler pipe is now a mandrel bent stainless steel one where i had to make an outlet for this breather pipe

No it connects to it, the filler hose has a pipe comes off the side of it just before it fits onto the block, this pipe runs up to the rocker cover.

 

Have a look at the picture I've linked to in my first reply & it shows the breather pipe routing.
