I was just lookin' at mine again (It's makin' me nervous and I can't stop
thinking about it!) There's already a breather on there that goes back to
the back of the TB area! What good will another breather do? They keep
tellin' me that waters not getting into my oil but I'm having a really
hard time believing it! I can literally watch the beads of water fall
down the sides of the tube and dissapear into the netherworld! This
really sucks! I talked to my service manager again, he said he was gonna
make some phone calls and see if he could get the issue pushed a little
harder. I voiced my concerns about long-term engine damage etc and he was
sympathetic, so maybe I'll get a good fix for this!
