The Badger Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 After a little burn out, were oil got into my intake system. Gonna fit a oil catcher tank off the swirl pot as currently it goes into the air intake (hence the little burn out) So anyone got some options, I know allisport do one but it seams a little bit larger, looking for a nice pot type with the correct oil pipe inlet? Anyhow, anyone like to comment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Chua Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 i've fitted one before when the butterfly valve on my Td5 failed before and there was oil going into the intercooler. i got a cheap japanese one, had to make the hoses, but they aren't under a lot of pressure, so normal hoses will even hold up. so it's simple enough that you can see the amount of oil in it as well, so when it's full you just tip it over and out it comes.

zoltan Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Tesco do them in 1 litre, 2 litre and 4 litre sizes with green or blue lids. Come with free milk.

maxtherotti Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 on my 300 tdi i fitted a darton breather and routed the vent pipe into a seperate catch tank made from a old rrc pas resovoir to eliminate the oil going into my air intake (struck me as a daft idea anyway lol) rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
