"My S III had individual air filters for each carb. The rear air filter had
the tube fitting out the back, which was connected to the similar fitting
on the oil filler neck with an appropriately sized hose. This in fact
provides some of the crankcase ventilation. The front air filter had a plug
in place of the fitting, presumably so that it could be interchanged with
the rear one if necessary."
***** NOTES from Jay Laifman (JLAIFMAN (at) PNM) at 3/10/97 9:08a
On the Series V, the two pipes coming out of the air filters are attached
to a special "F" shaped tube with the third end going, as you suggested,
to a pipe sticking out of the oil filler on the valve cover - only there
is a small metal cannister/spark arrester that goes directly on the pipe
on the filler, between the filler and the air cleaner hose.
