Stupidly i just thrown out these hoses as they were damaged, what i never

checked was if the hoses contain any restrictors or valves inside.

 

Can anyone tell me if these can be replaced with straight hoses or not ?

 

Heres a pic of the covers with the missing pipes in the middle :

Yeah i reckon flexible piping would be fine on that :)

yip,

 

Already got a hose that ive test fitted and its straight without and valves in it.

 

Just wondered if that can be used or do the originals need some sore of restrictor

like what the pcv hoses use.

iirc those pipes arent restricted and ive just taken one off my engine

great news, just need to cut some new pipe !

 

cheers for the info folks.

Mines got brass restictors in but i don,t think it,s any type of pressure restrictor i think it,s to stop any oil passing easily down the pipe into your induction pipes while still allowing the engine to vent , can,t really see it doing any harm not having them though .

Dont want to be funny! but you have a nice red paint job and old rusty bolts, for less then £20 you can get some nice s/steel bolts.

Already got some on order, there just holding it in place for now !

Thats good then.

If you get the pcv kit it replaces those hoses, no doubt you will need the others.

with plenum on those bolts are gonna be well out of sight if ya mean those and not the ptu ones :)

True,

 

But; its the smaller detailed things in the world that makes the differance !
