For 72-3 the vapors were pulled directly into the intake manifold. Extra breather ports were added to the rocker boxes on top of the heads where additional air, cleaned by the air cleaner, could be pulled INTO the case where they would scavenge vapors on the way to the breather box and the intake manifold. These engines are easily identified by the fact that they have 2 plastic caps on top of the breather box. The latest system is the only one which could accurately be called a positive crankcase ventilation system. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
