Jap In OZ Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Hello! The breather hose (I think that's what you call it) cracked on the scura just at the point were it goes back to the engine oil everywhere!! a bit of ducttape and a few tie-wraps later it was a little bit better but made for some quenched buttocks riding home. Ok and now the challenge get the right part!! I think it is this one: 16 823 956 080 1 Tubo sfiato Breather pipe Tube d'évent Entlüfterrohr? Can anyone confirm that? Just to clarify it's the hose that runs from the steeringhead to back to the engine it's about 30mm. Any help would be appreciated!

gstallons Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 when you change the hose look for the check valve located in the crankcase end of the hose! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ratchethack Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 when you change the hose look for the check valve located in the crankcase end of the hose! There is usually a valve inside the breather needed to be replaced with the new hose. No valve to be found inside any part of the V11 breather hose -- nor the block, according to the Guzzi Service manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docc Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Wasn't there a nifty Ford heater hose that could be trimmed to fit and more durable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ratchethack Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Wasn't there a nifty Ford heater hose that could be trimmed to fit and more durable? Yep. Don't ever recall any long-term feedback on those, but coolant hoses aren't formulated for, nor capable of standing up to use for oil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might not tell it looking at the outside. the inside will disfigure and collapse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsciullo Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Heres what I was able to dig up with a search. I bought one but havent used it yet. Anyone have another alternative? http://www.guzzitech.com/photos/EVBreatherHose.jpg On Guzzitech somebody posted a Ford heater hose that appears to be perfectly curved for the V11EV. It may also fit our bike: http://www.guzzitech.com/EVBreatherHose-Joe_B.html Pictured below is the Goodyear Ford hose #63318 compared to the EV hose Here is the NAPAonline part number and description: Item#: NBH10912 Price: $ 26.79 Attributes: Attributes: Hose - Heater I.D.(s): .62'' x .62'' x .62'' Length: 23.7'' Jim Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ratchethack Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Jim, I'm sure this hadn't escaped your attention, but for others who might tend to skim, skip, or ignore the caveats (previously posted numerous times in this thread). . . From your link above at GuzziTech: "I was in urgent need of replacement of the crankcase breather hose on my 98EV. The hose I used was Dayco #80404. It's intended purpose was as a coolant hose. . . This hose was used in an urgent situation and probably should be noted for this. I replaced this particular hose after 10-12000 miles due to it starting to look poor, very soft and starting to swell. I have received several emails from those unhappy that this $4.00 coolant hose may not be up to their expectations of the $30 + special grade factory hose." Anyone have another alternative? The alternative I came up with was high grade petrochem and heat tolerant bulk hose from an industrial hose supplier, with one each 90-degree and 135-degree "ells" in it. The total cost was <$20 USD. Mine's been on there for ~20K miles so far without a hint of a weep, seep, swelling, softening, cracking (as the OE hose did at 10K miles), or any other sign of fatigue.
