re-circulation hose fitting

[kgw]

Hi all,<br />I have a broken fitting for re-circ hose at the piston end of the block 86 rude 140,parts book doesnt show replacement part.is it available? if so does it unscrew or press fit? just how easy should you be able to blow through it? I tried to put a small wire in it (.030} it wouldnt go.dont know how big OMC cleaning tool is.the check valves are ok i cant blow through them but can suck air. still trying to fix idle prob but its cold out. thanks very mutch for all tour help<br /> Ken

I'm not sure but I think you need a 327706 fitting. Ask your dealer for one and see.<br /><br />Good luck!

That 'fitting' is a check valve.<br /><br />c/6<br />Hooty

Re: re-circulation hose fitting

Hi Hooty.<br />My parts list shows the check valve right behind the thottle plate close to the intake side of crankcase. when I blow through those they resist air but I can draw air through through them I thought that was how they were supposed to work.the cylinder side I believe is just a nipple I cant blow through them or draw air through. I am guessing they are blocked and was asking how big the OMC cleaning tool was.<br />All help is greatly appreciated ,Thanks Ken

Hey Ken, no offense taken. I thought I had a couple of those fittings, in fact, I know I do but I can't locate them. I'll check again tomorrow.<br /><br />c/6<br />Hooty
