Hi - Quick intro' , picked up the Comet at the end of last summer and enjoyed a few hundred very comfortable miles but with an indicated alightly less than 70mph, a leak from the head and latterly a sosmokey exhaust I decided a head job was in order.
The presnt position is I think I'm suffering from Tech' overload, can anyone confirm that the 'elephant trunk' and a blocked off oil tank vent pipe go hand in hand?. My concern is that there will be a vacuum in the tnk and that this will lead to at the very least oil starvation.
Also, the crankcase breather behind the cylinder is totallt dry and clear, I've no reason to think there is a timed vent issue is this because the 'elephant trunk' set up negates the need for the standard breather?
Thanks in advance.
