Techy question aimed at Mike, but anyone else is welcome to chip in.
I have an aftermarket Pipercross cone type filter fitted to my Janspeeded 280. Where then, should the rocker cover breather pipe be routed to in this case?
I thought it was supposed to be plumbed back into the air intake post filter, but pre air flow meter.
The people that fitted my system have stuck a Pipercross breather filter onto the rocker cover breather pipe. This produces a bit of oil smoke which then wafts out of the bonnet vents, which is unsightly and annoying.
The Pipercross filter I chose has a small pipe just behind the foam cone; I intended to run the breather pipe to this small pipe, as the stock setup had the rocker cover breather routed to a similar place. However, they have routed a pipe from some gubbins* on the top of the inlet manifold to this short pipe behind the filter.
* silver/white apparatus which looks a bit like an assymetrical spinning top approx 2.5" across.
Leave it be? Or change it?
Thanks
