If you need to sort it before inters you can put a k&N or pipercross breather filter on where it comes from the camcover, block off where it goes into the air intake (the electrical connector does nothing so ignore that!) then replace the thinner pipe that runs over the top of it into the manifold with an ordinary vacuum hose.

If you can wait until inters I'll show you :)

that'll be me bringing the filter up for you! thats if you dont have to replace it before hand! wrap sone insulation /gaffer tape arond the join for now as that will do the job on a temporary basis, you won't be needing that bit after the weekend anyhow!

I don't believe it. The breather pipe on my VR (see first post) has failed again. ~:( ~:( ~:(

Once more, my interior stinks of burning oil.

Can the bloody thing be replaced with something that will last? Part numbers anyone?
