cools the oil vapour to go into your airbox. it goes down the back of your engine, can see it on the russian site |

Hi Steve. I assume you're not running a standard manifold? The pipe in question is a water pipe that runs into the cooling tube that runs through the breather pipe. It exits halfway along the breather pipe and then connects to the fifth injector housing above the Idle Valve. From here it finally runs to the fitting on the side of the water pump housing just above the idler pulley. If none of the original equipment exists ( I seem to remember something being mentioned) then just run some appropriate size pipe between the first and last fittings! Hope that helps Mate! PS, Unless you want some serious water injection do not connect directly to the air box!

after closer inspection - it would ease my install if I could just block them both off - no big deal? or end of the world? ![]() thanks mate... |

Its just a side flow to the main cooling/heating system. Flow is minimal and I see no reason not to blank them off. |
