I went out and started my blue 914 this morning and it runs perfect (to me) as long as the oil filler cap is Off it runs GREAT.

I'm guessing that it should'nt be blowing air out of the oil filler hole but it is, there is no color to it just plain ole air.

We know I can't run it with no oil filler cap so whats the fix??

Levi,

Checked my 74 L-jet filler and it looks like the top one in sklines post. Opened the cap, looked in and there aint nutthin in that box. It's a straight shot through to the shiney aluminum of the case. As I recall, there is some mesh stuff in there around the edges of the box. A large diameter vacuum hose goes from the fill spout and attaches to the rubber manifold boot directly in front of the throttle body. Got a split in the hose or manifold boot?

If there was a pcv valve, I would put it in the middle of that big vacuum hose. Wasn't one on mine.

Nuttin in the factory parts catalog either. 1.8's don't have the Randelmutter fur plattenventil (disk valve for oil breather).

Ken

Yup mine is just like yours,

Can you do me a huge favor and start your car and see if its blowing a ton of air out of the filler cap hole and the connector that the hose connects to, I'm thinking that that filler cap is suppose to reduce the amount of air going into the hose?
