Default Will this cause any problems?
I installed a lid on my '02 TA and I didn't have an air breather for the line coming out of the right side of it. Currently, I just have it routed out of the way until I can get a breather. Will it hurt anything if it's like that for around a week or so?

Thanks!

Just get a cheap breather from your local auto parts store - won't hurt anything. You will get a SES light if the hose is kinked restricting air flow to the air pump though.

thanks, I got one of the 1/2" ones, but couldn't get it to stay on right. It's pretty much the same breather that you'd put in a head cover right? I can't find anything local that fits properly. It's not kinked at all the way I have it routed now.
