Hi all
Having problems with my breathers on my spi. The breather on the clutch side used to have a pipe that fed into the rest of the system, but it was knackered so I bought the new generic pipe from minispares which isn't shaped but the new pipe is kinked and therefore acting as though it's blocked.
I have tried various different lengths of pipe to try and not have it kinked but no good.
What have other people used?

If I do away with the pipe and put a little filter on the top of it instead do I then need to block the longer pipe system that feeds back to the inlet or can I leave that end open?
The timing breather feeds in to the inlet absolutely fine.

You could try one of these https://m.ebay.co.uk...415b1%7Ciid%3A2 just enter 12mm black elbow.
