My S3 ST has the 'extended neck' type oil filler with the rubber hose
running off the side to take oil fumes somewhere into the induction
system - first part of my question is, where is this hose supposed to
go? I'm sure this varies according to the carby/air filter set up.
>From pics in the Gold Portfolio road tests I can see that with twin
carbs & cannister air filter it feeds into the cannister, and on cars
with Solex PAIA + gravel strainer it seems to fit onto an attachment at
the base of the carb on the engine side. Where does it go for engines
with twin zeniths + gravel strainers? and for engines with PAIAs +
cannister?
Part 2, My car was originally equipped with Solex PAIA but a PO
converted it to 32/36 Weber. The hose on mine presently feeds from the
oil filler neck to an attachment on the outer or wheel side of the inlet
manifold -'downstream' of the carby. Is this where it's supposed to go?
Thanks in advance
Vic
