Do you guys think it will be california legal. I have been dying to try this, to prevent the oily mess.

There are ZERO emission components on the 2nd gen ISB trucks. Matter of fact, the engine vent we're all discussing here is internal crankcase vent which vents into the atmosphere!!!!! How many vehicles do you run across on a daily basis that vent their engine directly to the wide open spaces with no EGR? I'd probably be safe to say not many. So in regards to your question, yes, extending the "open loop" engine vent hose to a different location is perfectly CA diesel smog legal and any smog tech who tries to tell you otherwise shouldn't be a smog tech. :)

Just spent most of last night doing the entire cooling system. New cap. New thermostat . New upper/ lower hoses and new heater core hoses also pulled the radiator and cleaned it and the fan shroud I also added the vent mod. Now hopefully I won't have anymore coolant issues while towing.post-11910-138698189626_thumb.jpgAnd afterpost-11910-138698189655_thumb.jpgCould not see through the radiator before but now you can.

103*F and I cut the horizontal section of the pvc pipe short /@#$&

Puke bottle was about 1/2 full and 1/2" thick layer or more of crud.

So I have to make a jerry-rig temp setup until I get another piece of pipe.

I got most of mine done tonight but wonder how to keep the thing setting where is doesnt fall down? My boost tube comes out back by the fourth injector line and the vent mod wants to fall down on it.:think:

Second thought, what if we put the cover on that takes the place of the vent all together and run a small breather on the oil cap. Here is one, third from the bottom of page. http://hoeslidiesel.com/store/page2.html
