Clutch extended breathers?

Post by baggers »

Do many people have an extended breather/line out of the bellhousing?
Sounds pretty easy to do but is something like this going to save me next time I get stuck in water for too long? I know you shouldnt open the clutch once in, but it took a while to get the Mav out, and my clutch is absolutely shagged now.
Is there only one breather for it?

Cheers,

Baggers

There are NO breathers for it.
They leak around the boot, around the engine to bellhousing seal, and thru the bottom plug if missing.

simple..

dont drive in the mud...

Otherwise water/mudproof your bellhousing/starter motor and run low pressure air in it to pressurise it when doin mud/water crossings.
