The Multiquip EE44480 Air Cleaner Breather Tube KD20I is a genuine OEM component designed for the KD20I AC generator unit. As a direct OEM replacement, this tube is manufactured to the same specifications as the original part, ensuring a proper connection between the breather system and the air cleaner assembly. Verified to fit the KD20I, this part is the correct choice for restoring your unit to proper operating condition.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to exact original specifications, ensuring the correct inner diameter, material flexibility, and fitting geometry for the air cleaner breather circuit on the KD20I.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Connects directly to the existing breather and air cleaner ports without modification, making replacement straightforward for technicians familiar with the KD20I service procedure.
- Confirmed KD20I Fitment — Engineered specifically for the KD20I AC generator, eliminating guesswork when sourcing this part for scheduled maintenance or unplanned repairs.
- Crankcase Pressure Management — A properly functioning breather tube allows the engine to vent crankcase pressure cleanly through the air cleaner, preventing oil contamination of the intake and protecting engine internals.
- Fuel System and Air Intake Safety — A cracked or collapsed breather tube can introduce unmetered air or allow oil mist into the intake, leading to rough running or potential fuel mixture issues — replacing with a genuine OEM part eliminates that risk.
The air cleaner breather tube routes crankcase blowby gases from the engine's breather outlet back into the air cleaner assembly, where they are re-introduced into the intake and burned off during combustion. This closed-loop design keeps oil vapors out of the atmosphere and prevents pressure buildup inside the crankcase. When the tube cracks, collapses, or loses its seal at either fitting, the engine may run rough, consume oil, or develop leaks — making timely replacement an important part of routine engine maintenance.
