After not knowing I was missing a breather hose, I decided to upgrade from the masking tape that my mechanic installed. It was spitting oil EVERYWHERE.
Length - 36" Diameter 1" On sale @ $1.57 foot About 8 minutes to fit, cut, and install. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I then found some high temp aquaium tubing in the garage (.5") and used it for the spit tank. I wrapped it in electrical tape, just because. Does the spit cup need to be vented? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) And I probably need clamps (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Attached image(s) |
