I'm in need of recirculating the crank case breather hose. The original air filter housing does not allow for direct line in, but appears the design and position of the breather hose, is that of in my humble opinion; as the end of the hose and the mouth of the air intake housing are in close proximity, suction is created and the crank case gasses and dust is sucked in to be recirculated.
However, this system is open and gasses and dust are escaping into the engine compartment, leaving smell and a fine coating of oily dust. I would like to eliminate this for a cleaner boat.
My thoughts are to locate a filter kit, similar to an K&N that has a pcv valve built in. Or does the wisdom of the owners forum have alternative methods to achieve my intended results?
Open minded to all ideas except getting rid of my boat. (My wife's idea!)
Air intake cover is the lower left oval thing. Shows how the breather hose runs along side.
