Crankcase Breather and Coolant Temp

[haygood at myway.com (Brian Haygood)]

Eric,

 It isn't that hard to get that last hose on.  Just feel around under the intake manifold near the #1 cylinder.  With a breather on there it will be pulling air in that hasn't been measured by the air flow plate, so your fuel mixture will be off a little.  That means you should hook it up very soon.
