New project

I had some free time to work on the car. I was looking for altenative to route the tube coming from the valve cover to remove the air cleaner. i found this photo another member posted. Can someone direct me to the proper routing of the lines.

This is where I think they go. the second clear tube I think goes to a fitting on the tube for the intake.

The black tube is attached to the fitting/tube that leads to the oil pan. is my analysis correct? If not. can someone educate me. Thanks in advance.

I know that picture.

The line from the top of the seperator is vented to the atmosphere, probably just hanging down near the pavement. Some people send that back to the turbo inlet to create a slight vacuum on the crankcase. This is how the factory set up is done.

The bottom line is the oil drain and goes either to a catch can or back to the oil pan.

Thank you. As i thought, now I can start building the new design I started on building. Another question: the oil tube that returns to the oil pan. Does have a "one way" check valve to prevent the blow bay coming from the pan? Is it removable reveale a fitting to slip on a hose to it and clamp?

If I was to route the oil drain line from the seperator. how does one attach it to that tube?

It is interesting that in this last few days there is a peeked interest in Blow-by Oil Separators.

In the beginning of Sep. there was folks having issues with their Ignition Tumblers.

Things seem to go in cycles.

That the different problems seem to go in cycles is interesting.

What worries me is that a lot of problems that others have had catch up with me eventually. Which is the main reason I spend a lot if time reading these Threads.

The Ignition Tumble problem has not caught up with me yet. I only have the Valet keys for my car and would like to have the Master Key. But, I keep putting off getting one or getting the New Tumble with keys at the Dealer.

Note:
When I was at a Locksmith Shop he was on the Phone with a Customer talking about how People who have a big wad Keys hanging from their Ignition Switch Key are the ones who have issues with it.
