Brief Description: engine case oil breather vent line install
One aluminum vent line pre bent and a NAPA rubber hose supplied. Make it fit! The rv8A has the metal tube portion clamped to the firewall and the taildragger has it clampped to the engine mount. OK, so I played with this for awhile and determined where aprox I wanted it clampped and then fiddled back and forth on the rubber portion that transitions from the case port to the metal tube. That eventually got cot back to a 1 x 3 inch L shape. The Idea was to get the metal tube positioned so that it does not hit the oil filter or run into my red cube fuel meter and mount. When I finaly got it close and after a few small bends and several cuts th the rubber, I got it positioned. I then only had to clamp it with adel clamps to the engine mount and then clamp it tight to the engine port etc. I also safety wired the adjustable clamps so they would not loosen up with vibration.
