Top advice!
Putting your hand (well the size of mine, they work ok) over the top of the snorkel, with top cap removed, should stall your engine - if it doesn't, it's not air tight!

where is the tank one? done all my other breathers. Well, the t box and gear box ones I found a few months ago whilst doing engine change. no wonder I couldnt find them before as they were wel hidden behind engine.

I would contact Reaper as he does great breather kits with a manifold and everything you need for £45 +P&P. Simple kit to install and the 1 pipe from manifold to inside of top of safari snorkel is un noticeable unless you look REALLY hard. Had loads of people say how neet it is. :dance:
