I was reading the various threads about diff breathers, vaccum of air thru the birfs into the diff when it gets hot, and diff extensions. I was wondering if anyone had tried to drill/tap a second breather opening, and run tubing up into the engine compartment. Use two one way valve things (havent figured that part out yet.....one allowing air in, the other allowing air out. Theorhetically would create a draft of air thru the diffs, eliminating the vaccum. Might also keep the diffs a touch cooler(although underhood air isnt that cold).
Lookin for input on this. Do you guys think this is worth doin, or would the smell of hot gear oil (the only auto smell I absolutely cant stand) not be worth the effort?
I'll be doing a birf job on my lx in the next couple of months(work/travel schedule permitting), and may take the chance and crack open the pumpkin and drill/tap it.
