Ok dual webber carbed 2.0, I think the PO had the head vents running to a T then to the oil breather near the oil cap... Is this right?? I did a search and now I'm really confused,,,,

..........USE THE DAMN HEAD VENTS.....Because, the lowest part of the head,s Is above the crankcase, oil level,...and ANY heat FROM, BY,or TRANSFERED to the head is going to be "captured". THE only way to dissapate this heat is from...air blowing accross the head from the cooling system, BLOWER....But another thing is going on. All the moisture(condension)( from oil above 212-degrees)...and airomatic gasses...fuel and blow-by contaminion is "trapped" in the head......Have you ever disassembled an engine with rusty film on the rockerarm covers?. rocker arms? ....IT,s due to low oil temperature, trapped condensation,and residuals.(airomatics-gas fumes) being trapped in the HEAD. The pushrod tubes equalize pressure in the head and crankcase. Therefore VENTING the heads is equivalant to venting the crankcase-only better as it,s also venting otherwise trapped-HEAT-moisture,and contaminants..............Murray.
