Brought GT-4 with a dodgy intake setup. Was unable to source the factory setup so have cleaned it up a bit... intake pipe, breather filters etc.
Part of this new improved intake involved using an oil breather filter, initally this was ok but later on it started to spit a bit of oil out and now if I fang it then its a whole lot of oil. Bodgied up a home made catch can to get an idea of how much its using and on a long trip is around 50-100mls. Add to this some sort of wierd vapour mainly around low revs (1500 to 2500) - not sure if its water vapour or something else (maybe burning oil somewhere??). I guess a catch can will fix the messy part and stop oil spillage messing up the engine bay but is this much oil normal? and whats with the vapour - terminal?? Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated... |
