2012 fuel cap straight breather connector ?

Featured Replies

does any one know of a straight adaptor to replace the 90 degree elbow on a 2012 evo fuel cap 

would like to fit a short breather pipe with vent on top 

I have seen the Racing cap but its £50 

 

I lost the 90 degree fitting on my Evo and replaced the breather with a one way valve on a short pipe (easily available on line).

I found one of the fittings from a bicycle pump flexible hose (the old fashioned ones) screwed into the hole in the top of the cap.  Used a small piece of hose to get the right ID for the new breather.

Has worked fine ever since.

thanks 

just found and ordered a 25cm length of 5mm OD stainless tube for £3.45 

think a bit of it should do the trick combined with a short breather tube and one way valve

will tidy the fuel cap up nicely
