Hi
For those of you using the crankcase pressured YS50 and a MP5 pipe,what are you doing with the redundant hole in the exhaust header?
It looks like there are two options.

1 Find a suitable bolt and seal the hole

2 Attach the supplied pressure nipple,attach a very short piece of fuel pipe to it and then put one of those available stoppers in the end.

Any thoughts?

Take the pipe off. Use a piece of tape to form a flat surface over the hole in the inside of the pipe. Then seal with JB weld. It will form a flat metal surface. Just make sure before you apply this method you wipe the threads and surounding area with alcholol to remove factory oil coat. This will let JB weld adhere

I used a screw and a little sealant. Works fine and I still have the option to use the hole for a pressure tap if I change engines.

Hmm, both MP5's I have came with a threaded plug to seal the pressure port in the header. That's what I use.
