Do i need an oil return pipe?

[Mr Plums]

I mean oil breather pipe lol.

Hi, i am thinking of ordering a blue silicone induction hose which doesnt have the oil breather pipe fitted like the standard one or the samco one(too expensive!)

I was wondering if its ok to fit an induction hose without this pipe and if it will do any damage if i did?

Also, what do you do with the standard oil breather pipe that goes into the induction hose if you dont fit it in your new induction hose?

Thanks for any info

Catch tank

Don't put a breather filter on the end spout from the breather plate.. it will clog up

So i would simply plumb the breather pipe into a catch tank?

Would the engine run exactly the same with no problems etc?

-Yes. I'm using an old beer can btw.

-Yes.

Will run exactly the same with no problems the air intake will be cleaner with no oil residue and the ron rating of the fuel won't get depleted (un-noticable) by the oil vapour that gets sucked back through the engine..

Yep just plumb it straight into a catch tank with a breather filter mounted to the tank
