Intake pipe hole?

eddiii · Post by **eddiii** » Wed Sep 23, 2009 11:09 am

on my intake pipe, theres a hole (arnd 1cm or less) on the left side facing the engine, it use to has a blueish pipe blocking it and leads to somewhere, just wondering what is the purpose for it, and if i dont put it back, does it affect performance or the car?

its the breather pipe, if you don't connect it it'll suck a lot of dust into your engine.

It needs to be open as it vents the vaper out of the heads.

Repco etc. will have one that will fit. However, I've been told that they are not legal, at least in Queensland.

^ yup, repco and super cheap have them. 'Crank Case Filter' is what I've always seem them sold as. Ebay is bound to have a decent selection.

Not legal? You chaps have some funny laws over there!

Universal, they usually have a couple of differernt fittings that come with them, so you just use the one that fits best
