Leaking Bov Return Pipe.

[Finchy33]

Hey guys, I recently found that the BOV return pipe on my R33 had a bit of a slice in it. Well, the hose bit anyway.

Where does this pipe return to the inlet? I am assuming that it returns unmetered as it already has been.

This would cause the car to run a little lean right?

it will cause it to run rich, because the air escaping has already passed the afm and it thinks the air is going into the engine.

I don't think it would be causing too much of a problem, as it would be the same as if you had an atmo blow off valve.

Where does the pipe rejoin the inlet?

It would make it run lean under load

So it re joins in before compressor?

Air would suck in the hole??

Yes, Yes
