TDI Timing Case Breather
« on: February 11, 2009, 15:40:02 »
I have just got a TDI Timing Case Breather that goes on the bottom of the case where the plug would normally be can I leave this breather on all the time? and can I get one for the bell housing? Ben

ben i wouldnt use a breather from the bottom as oil will block it up if any comes out from the crankcase

Don't leave a wading plug in the bell housing or the timing case...they act as drains as well as breathers.  put a breathers in elsewhere but never leave the wading bungs in
Did everyone see that?  Because I will NOT be doing it again!

I leave mine in and check them about once per month or if I have been in deep water within a day or two.
