Washing engine w/ Metco breather???
Washing engine w/ Metco breather??? I don't think that would be a good idea, since the filter will get water logged and possibly leak water down into the motor. What are people doing to cover the hole when washing the engine? I broke off my stock filler neck <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Re: Washing engine w/ Metco breather??? Using a 'closed' style breather can solve the problem as well. I am running an Earl's breather, looks better too.
