I don't think dirt is likely to be much of a problem, but you'll pollute a bit more. > If they were phased out would it be a mistake to plug the tube completely? Don't plug it. When they phased it out they made other provisions. The FI cars have that tube drain back down into the filler pipe. If you wanted to, I think you could add this to your engine. I think all you'd need would be the breather box, filler pipe, and connecting hose from a 68-71 FI engine. 72-3 FI engines did something completely different, and more complicated. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
