Thank you. Just ordered
I was just looking for something like that. Ended up with exhaust hose.Hope you have a steady hand and a really good set of drill bits
As I get closer to baseline, during my intake/breather/filter/air system repairs, I found the hoses running to the AIRSEP were permeated with oil.
CAT has an update on these hoses with non-permeable material.
One long hose, cut to fit and two breather collars.
Here's how it comes and how it looks once installed:
BEST !

Question - on the coalescer there is that rubber reducer fitting then that fitting clamps onto the ribbed hose. How does that clamp on the hose? It doesn't seem like it would ever be able to seal or clamp down.Hope you have a steady hand and a really good set of drill bits

My thought as well, however it's set up the same as the original was.Question - on the coalescer there is that rubber reducer fitting then that fitting clamps onto the ribbed hose. How does that clamp on the hose? It doesn't seem like it would ever be able to seal or clamp down.
The little filter will be just fine. I think that the evac of the crankcase isn't going to work as designed and you'll start to see oil dripping where that hose goes into the rubber fitting. I think an adapter is needed. Adapts to the inside of both the ribbed hose and rubber reducer.M

The new collar appears to function exactly the same as the factory Airsep setup.
It's a very tight fit getting that coiled hose into the collar.
Had to use a needle nose and some soapy water to even get it started.
Guess the clamp is not really needed but does provide some insurance
The old hose was brittle AND saturated.
Another step closer to baseline.
Question: Since I had the room, I set the small breather filters up straight, not at an angle as is generally seen. Any logical reason to tilt them?

I use none also, at least not any I can notice , and except the time I left the dip stick not properly seated back in engines get light use onlyOil change time is coming, so I have simply been watching the oli level and not adding anything.
Havent added anything since last August.
Seems to me - and I have zero data to prove this, that I am using zero oil when I maintain the oil level at the fill mark.
Am I alone on this?
