You can always try it - if it clears the problem you know it needs tuning with the taipan airbox on...

does any1 give a sh1t?

ttt for tiger

yeah its ok now iv sorted the pipe out it doesnt smell, it passed emissions ok on natural idle but lambda reading an co reading was a little too high on fast idle check, lambda showed there was too much air in the mixture, he suggested to take my taipan airfilter off put my standard airbox back on and reconnect the breather to its proper postition wat ya think?

Is it idling correctly?

How does it run when its hot?

Yeah it sounds like it - you get that smell if the auto-choke is stuck open a little too. Check your fuel line for leaks or signs of petrol to rule that out. Might be worth sticking it on a tuner at an MOT centre. They maight be able to source the the problem through the emission levels.

post should be in help anyway ;)

It's downhill.

well iv put the breather hose back on but its not quite long enuff cos i had to cut it down for the breather filter so its kinked in the middle so it kind off restricted ever since i did this it seems to smell of petrol culd it be overfuelling?

its a shop

and all other shite sayings u reply when someone asks a serious q

hmmmz

I spose the whole idea of the breather hose is to let the engine breath - if its blocked it would breathe heavily and therefore overfuel maybe. Im not 100% sure but thats the best i can think of.

well iv put the original airbox back on and attached the breather hose back to its normal position on the airbox, wot happens to the emissions if the breather is blocked off?

Could just be second hand air from the crank going through the breather hose or dirty air from wherever the breather hose is coming from.

qh3y

so if the breather hose isnt going into where it shuld and it comes straight off the block into a breather filter how culd this affect the emissions?? the guy at the garage sed he thinks airs getting into or behind the butterfly thru the breather hose as its not going back thru the inlet

The part of the throttle that opens to let the air in.

Nope

What the butterfly is in the inlet system of a car?
