Breather tube

Does anyone know where to find one of these, it is the breather tube that goes from the driver side valve cover to the air cleaner on a v6 paper element type, this one is split very bad and cracking. If I can't find one of these does anyone know where to get a grommet and breather to go in the valve cover.

 

{Watching thread closely - I need one too...}

 

I would think that a quick trip thru parts house would turn up a grommet, and a Mr Gasket breather. It will be a standrd issue Chrome plated jobie. Since this is plain ol' GM valve covers, the hole is a normal size

well....the hole on mine was larger and Mr Bling would drop right thru
I welded and ground down a large washer with the correct ID over the larger hole in the valve cover; then Mr Bling fit right in!
ymmv

 

Yep, went to the locl FLAPS and every grommet he had was way to small, Autozone and Advance are even less help. I guess I will search the net now for something.

 

NAPA autoparts should have what you need. also, (i hate sayn' this but Kragen has lots of grommets thats where i found one for my buick V6) then i just got a plastic elbow and a small hose to goto the air cleaner..
P.S. the grommet box should say its for a GM. take you'r old one with you to match>>

 

Ditto here Mike. Let us know if you eventually find one. I'll do the same.

 

Sure thing.

 

Here ya go

Mr Bling in all his glory

Mr Bling removed to show washer mod to make Mr Bling fit

 

mines bigger R)

 

mines dirty.....needs a bath

 

Now children, play nice!

 

Thanks for the pics!

I suppose we'd have to plug off the hole in the stock breater where the hose attaches... But that shouldn't be a big deal - little electrical tape and you'd never know it was there.

Thanks again guys!
