Finally getting around to replacing my non-functional Hydrovac with a new (new-manufacture) SI Hydrovac. The top tube which goes from the back of the unit over the top to the front "breather" (vent?) sticks out so far to the back that it won't fit by the battery.
It's connected by a spring clip into a rubber hose on the back, but appears to be sealed with something into the front casting. Can this tube be removed from the hydrovac without ruining anything inside the hydrovac, so it could be shortened? If not, it looks like we're going to have to do some drilling and move the hydrovac and brake hose brackets forward on the inner fender away from the battery.
