I used the whistle slot and it works fine, IF you have a good rearward =
cut on the piece that sticks out the bottom. I tried cutting it more in =
line with the fuselage bottom, and that caused oil to blow onto the =
firewall through the whistle slot. I recut it with more angle and it is =
working fine without getting oil on the firewall.

Because of the possibility of the crankcase breather hose freezing up, =
reflectorites have suggested slitting the top side of the hose near the =
crankcase outlet for pressure relief in such an event. This avoids =
blowing out the crankcase seal with a blocked hose.=20
Has anyone considered/used a pop off valve in the hose instead of a =
slit? Seems like this would give a more reliable, controlled escape. If =
so,where would one get such a valve?
