2540, K&N breather filters Posted by Talow79, May-29-01 11:11 AM
I know you can put one where the tube runs from the valve cover to the intake pipe. Is there any other place one would be helpful? Does any one have pictures of their engine compartments showing where others are being installed.

I have one after the PCV valve and capped off the intake manifold.
I need to finish the roll of film in my camera and scan the pictures, then I'll have more engine bay pics.

At high rpms when the motor is really turning and creatign pressure. Oil can be kicked up through the valve cover hoseind into the intake pipe. Same thing with the PCV valve and the intake manifold. Plus the air being brought back into the intake is hot air = not as good for combustion as cool air. Is there a noticeable performance increase? No. Do you "maybe" get .5hp? sure why not. Biggest thing it does is keep the intake clean, which for the manifold is pointless until you disconnect the EGR system from the manifold.
