Oil valve

[Ralph195]

I was tighting a clamp and an electrical plug was in the way pulled it out work on the clamp put the plug back in. It was a little bit crooked so I pulled it out but the whole part came apart and open. There was valves and a spring next to the valve and someone told me it was a valve that if the boat flipped over the oil will be prevented from seeping out. Does anyone know the part number on a 150hp installed in a 2016 Scarab 195?

Thank you for your reply. I will try to get some pics this evening.

I think you are talking about the VENT VALVE ASSEMBLY on the head of the engine. You will need engine model number to know the correct part number.

Here are two picks of the valve.
The first one shows the part attached to the engine block with a hose clamp to the top and the second one shows the other end of the hose attaching to the air intake hose past the filter

I apologize the first post that I did made it sounds like it was an electrical part..... it is not....its a part with an air hose that goes from the part to the bigger intake air hose

Yes that is the VENT VALVE ASSEMBLY. http://epc.brp.com/Index.aspx?lang=E&s1=f74413d4-7b99-49ab-8e59-f820341190e3 This is also the BRP parts catalog.

Be careful when you install new one they are very cheap and break easily, I rested my hand on the vent hose and the assembly cracked and had to replace.

That's exactly what happened to me I was fixing the hose that goes from the pump to the manifold the pumps water around the engine to cool it had come loose from a 90-degree elbow at the manifold, I leaned on it and cracked it. I put some tie straps around it hoping that it would closing temporarily while I got the parts figured out but evidently it didn't work. The reason I was fixing the hose at the 90-degree elbow was because the nipple on the 90-degree elbow had sheared off and the dealer told me they had to remove the engine out of the boat to replace the entire manifold. So what I did I got a 90-degree elbow hose and put it over the 90° elbow metal that's part of the manifold to fix it. I was in the middle of the bay and water was gushing out of the hose instead of into the manifold to cool down the engine. I got a low oil pressure warning making the boat go into limp home mode. When I got home I was able to clear the limp home mode but I believe since the valve is cracked the boat went back into limp home mode. The way I cleared the limp home mode initially was starting the boat putting the throttle all the way open turn off the engine when the throttle was all the way open restarted it and the limp home mode cleared for 20 minutes. I'm doing the same procedure now but the limp home mode does not clear so I figure is the cracked valves that is making the engine go into limp home mode.
Any suggestions or imput is greatly appreciated.
I do want to thank everyone that has giving me their insight.... it's been very helpful.
