its when you remove the whole PS system and and you just run a hose between the input and output line on the PS rack

A pic of the breather?

Did you cut any of the hardline?

I just have a vacuum cap on the pump input on the rack (other lines are looped). I noticed that it bubbles around the edges. Also, how did you loop the lines since they're different diameters? I'm using a vacuum line reducer. I was wondering if I could loop all three together or would the hose pop off.
