oil filler vent

Post by waynek »

Hi all,
I'm installing dual webers on my stock
1600, since the vent hose at the oil filler
normally goes to the air breather, where
do I route that hose?
Note, along with the carbs,I've added
a Bosh 009 and custom exhaust to my
74' Thing.

I believe that's the crankcase breather you are talking about and it is (was) part of the emission control system. I would suggest putting this question on the performance forum, there are several regulars there with tons of carb experience.
Just running it to one carb may upset your mixture.

Sorry to hear about the 009, you might want to get the latest on that one as well, and don't throw your old vacuum dist away yet.
