Talking about EC300, 2009.
When I got the bike, the PV left hand vent (?) hose had been plugged and the right hose was breathing directly into the atmosphere.
Later I installed a 10 mm spacer between the engine and LH cover, which clearly improved low end torque.
Now I unplugged and re-plugged the LH hose, and found that plugging has a significant effect on low end grunt!
Having dismantled the PV parts a couple of times, I really cannot figure out why plugging the hose or having the spacer should have any effect on PV operation.
Does anyone have informed opinions?
