v6 back breather box - large pipe
« on: 16 June 2015, 20:16:02 »

i have checked all the breather pipes except one - the large pipe on the back breather box.  i checked the small hole on it - it is fine. the black plastic breather bridge was fine with all ports clear.  the large pipe on the breather box seems a pig to get at without dismantling stuff, which is why i haven't done it.  given everything else was fine can i assume that one will be ok too?

You can test it by pulling off the 2 outer pipes at the back of the plenum, blocking one and blowing into the other - if you can blow into it easily it ain't blocked.
