    Breather hose.

    I am currently running the webers on my 66 911 w/o the air cleaners and just stacks. What do folks do with the breather hose coming from the oil filler. I ran w/o a hose from the filler but got oil blowing on to the engine (real mess). Is there a small breather filter that can be put on the end of the hose. Would Ideas/ Pictures?
    Thanks

    Before I went back to a stock air cleaner I was running an aluminum racing style catch can with a K&N breather filter on top. I think you need a can of some sort, or an "R" washer bottle to get the liquid condensed oil. Then the vapor goes out the top thru the filter and gets sucked into the cooling fan where it can coat the top of your engine

    You can run the hose into an old window washer reservoir bottle (as I've currently done) or buy one of the crankcase breather filters to cap it off. These can get a little oily thus the common catch can solution.
