My "Red Tumbler" Skybolt has a bad reputation for leaving a big mess on the ramp after I've returned from filling my prescription for Vitamin G. A big OILY mess from the breather. I've got the Christen valving system, the usual slobber pot, and the Christen "T" fitting .
Andrew Brett Slatkin's "White Roller" Skybolt also has the same system, though it is plumbed differently (no "T" fitting"), and he never has ANY oil on his tail.
What gives?
Well, it starts with obtaining this fitting, which would allow me to return my oil to the engine via the vacuum pad. The hose goes straight to the top port of the Christen valve.
Does anyone have a source for this revised vacuum pad fitting? I could make one, but would rather not have to.
