The Multiquip 01617900 Breather Tube is a genuine OEM component designed for the QP3TZ trash pump. As a factory-sourced part, it meets the exact specifications set by Multiquip, ensuring correct fit and function without guesswork. This is the same breather tube installed at the factory, making it the straightforward choice when servicing QP3TZ equipment.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Sourcing — Factory-matched tubing material and dimensions ensure correct venting behavior, not an approximation of it.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to connect to existing fittings on the QP3TZ without adaptation or rework.
- Confirmed QP3TZ Fitment — Verified for Multiquip QP3TZ trash pump applications, so you order with confidence.
- Maintains Proper Crankcase Venting — A correctly functioning breather tube keeps internal pressure balanced, protecting engine seals and preventing oil leaks that a blocked or cracked tube can cause.
- Fuel and Oil System Integrity — Proper crankcase breathing directly affects oil consumption and combustion consistency; replacing a failed tube restores normal engine operation.
The breather tube routes crankcase gases away from the engine's internal cavities, preventing pressure buildup that would otherwise force oil past seals and into areas where it does not belong. On a trash pump like the QP3TZ, where the engine is often working hard in demanding site conditions, a healthy breather tube is essential to keeping oil consumption stable and seals in good condition. When the tube cracks, collapses, or becomes clogged, the resulting pressure imbalance can cause oil leaks, excessive smoke, and accelerated wear on internal engine components.
