Title: Hmmmmmmmmm, where does this go???
Post by: horsecow on 01 June 2017, 21:49:30

Finally gotten around to putting the 3.2 back together after swapping the heads out. I've more or less finished with just a few bits lefts to do but I've got a small pipe I can't figure out where it goes. 12mm black pipe which comes up from underneath the cabin along the top of the gearbox and is tied into the cables that comes up from there as well. No obvious bends in it and it doesn't seem to have had a clip to hold it in place but I just can't see anywhere to connect it. Obviously I'm showing my lack of mechanical expertise here, but easier to ask the experts than spend hrs trying to figure it out. Many thanks guys

If it's a plain black hose, it's gearbox breather

Yeah plain black hose no markings at all that I can see and u did assume it was something to do with gearbox. Where do I need to connect this to then?

Sweet. Thanks guys. I was pretty sure I hadn't missed anything so that's a relief. Was dreading having to take everything apart again!!
