    well i was tinkering around and managed to snap one of the plastic fittings on my turbo inlet hose which is one of the breather hose lines. Its the line that would go to the middle fitting out of the three plastic ones on this pic of perrins model.

    I already have a new one on the way(the one above) and i'm just wondering if i can plug off the inlet tube peice that i broke and the line and drive the car until the new pipe arrives?

    thnx

    Plugging the hose going to the inlet would be bad. Plugging the broken fitting is ok. You need to T the hose into another one of those fittings.
