Oil fill cap / breather vent who makes one?

[dieseljunkie]

Mr. Gasket makes a breather that will press into the oil fill cap orifice. It not for the cummins but it will work, Ill get a part #.

So if you have blow by problems will doing this help you with power? Or does it just protect the motor?

It will give the blow by somewhere else to go and relieves puking in some cases.

Would there be any point of putting the breather from jegs on a mild street truck? Or would it be a waste of time?

Here is what I did:

parts list
Dremel
Gorilla glue
Oil cap- Napa P/N: 703-1458
Breather Filter- Auto Zone P/N: 3998 Brand "Spectre"

clamp the cap in a vise with a rag or small towel (not too much or you'll break it) then drill a hole about 3/4" or what looks to be large enough for the rubber tube from the breather will fit in BUT not to big where it will be loose. I used a Dremel side Drill and then a deburring tool to finish up the hole. then put some glue on the rubber part of the filter as well as the oil cap. push in and youre done!

Note- test fit all your parts prior to glue! AND my filter was a little loose from the rubber gromet that was supplied so I glued that as well to keep it from vibrating while the motor is running

I've got 2 of the Jegs breathers here at my house that are going on when I can come up with a new valve cover. I'll post pics when she's done
