The oil tank has one vent hose connection and the neck has another...The top of the engine case has a hose port and the CIS unit has another. Which one goes to the top of the oil tank? Do I need to buy a "T" or something and send both of them there? I assume the one on the oil filler neck gets sent back to a container in the trunk, right?
Pics any one? Doug C |

The end result depends on what year the motor is. The ;ower one (tank) goes to the top of the case. Earlier cars vent the filler neck to the air filter housing (airbox), and the later cars run it into the "suction hood", after the sensor plate. In either case, that's what you need to do. Venting it to a bottle or to open air has been illegal in the USA since the early 1960s. The Cap'n
