ar22 Posted March 10, 2019 Report Share Posted March 10, 2019 does any one know of a straight adaptor to replace the 90 degree elbow on a 2012 evo fuel cap would like to fit a short breather pipe with vent on top I have seen the Racing cap but its £50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu109 Posted March 11, 2019 Report Share Posted March 11, 2019 I lost the 90 degree fitting on my Evo and replaced the breather with a one way valve on a short pipe (easily available on line). I found one of the fittings from a bicycle pump flexible hose (the old fashioned ones) screwed into the hole in the top of the cap. Used a small piece of hose to get the right ID for the new breather. Has worked fine ever since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
