The two larger tubes actually join together and, along with the smallest tube, go to the 'breather box'.
I'll have to think about the other one though .....  :-[

So basically all tubes would need tracing and cleaning out including breather box entry to do a thorough job?

Access to the breather box itself is awkward, as is removing the clips!
It's a cinch when you get that far  ;D

Quoted from guide:
(Remove the 2 breather tubes - 1 small one from the breather box, 1 large one that divides into two from the same breather box.}

Where does the fourth tube from the breather bridge go to? thanks for help
